How apply shadow to a custom shape?

My tutorial says that if you add a custom shape to a layer that contains text with a shadow on her effect, it will automatically drop shadow.  But when I tried to do, he did another layer of the form.  (A) is it possible to add the shape of the text layer?  or (B) how to set the effect to imitate the drop shadow, but on the custom shape layer. And (C) is there a reference I can study so I can learn all about the effects?

(A) good, so not that I'm sure that you cannot create a form on a text layer.

(B) there are two simple ways that I would click on the small arrow next to the layer of text with shadow on it and that, so Alt click and drag of this effect on the shape layer or create a group (the icon of the folder at the bottom of the layers panel), you should find a shadow effect Drag the text layer so the layer shape in it then click and drag the shadow effect of the text to the Group layer.

(C) there are many tutorials photoshop online. If you are looking to really learn photoshop, try deex.info (they are paid) you can see Phlearn on YouTube or really just look at the effects on YouTube.

  • How to add the filter clouds custom shapes?

    Hello: Level: Beginner OS: Windows 7 64 bit Ps CS6

    I'm doing a Sun. I used the elliptical marquee and was able to add the filter > render > coulds w / no problem

    However, when I draw a custom shape and that you try to use the cloud filter it fills the whole layer not only shape.

    I have tried several things but nothing worked.

    In addition, a box appears that says the layer must be rasterized before using the cloud filter and then he fills the whole canvas/layer.

    Any ideas? Thank you for your time

    Photoshop filters only work on raster images (i.e. pixels). Two ways to get the necessary shape layer raster:

    1 rasterize the SL, constantly converting them into a regular pixel layer (although you can keep a copy of the SL in case you wanted to come back).

    2 convert the SL to a dynamic object which non-destructive encapsulates the SL and provides a matrix representation on which filters can operate. It is beneficial that you can change the shape at any time confined layer, you can transform non-destructive (e.g. stretch or deform) the SO as many times as you want, and filters can be attached as non-destructive editable new dynamic filters.

    For the clouds be visible only the existing pixels and not the empty region of a layer, make a mask of the layer: target a layer, Ctrl-click on the thumbnail to get a marquee of its pixels, and then click the Add mask at the bottom of the layers panel. That's what I did below, but the mask could be used as a mask smart filters that you see as a white tile.

  • How to create a buffer custom MTS?

    Hello

    I would use a Philips Lumiled K2 bomber led to a design.

    It has an ashaped hexagonal pad below the Led.

    I created a footprint that works very well, my design seems OK

    But I don't like how I had to do...

    Let me explain, I drew a haxagonal form and made a mask of block matching and the mask welding...

    Then I added a round SMT pin, then I might give the new pad a name (so that I can use in my patterns (pin5)

    But there should be an easier way...

    In the editor of Ultiboard pieces, creating a custom stamp, I can add a pad "custom".

    Then a window opens to select a custom of the database buffer

    (Check the filter in the screenshot, it says 'custom cushion shape'). but I can't find any form in databases...

    Then, next setp, I would create my own pads custom, polygonal and any key SMT odd form,

    And give a touch, a name of pin (number attribute...)

    How can I create a custom carpet?

    Best regards

    Johan

    Hi johan,.

    so you can create a custom stamp: tools, database, Manager of database filter: custom cushion shape. Filter parts: Createnew part. Custom PADE form OK. An open design window. Now, you can create a form in any form you like, by location of shapes (circle or polygon or...) Being the reference point is inside the shape of shure. File, save it in the database. Give it a name. File, close. If you now create a new part, you can use the new pad like any other key in the system.

  • 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

  • In the 13 elements custom shapes

    Hello everyone

    I learned in seeking how to install brushes, patterns, ect. in photoshop 13 running via the preset manager. However, you cannot do the same for custom forms when dealing with the cookie cutter tool. Can someone tell me how to install custom shapes?

    There are two places you can put custom shapes to show for the Cookie Cutter tool

    C:\Program Adobe Photoshop elements 13\Presets\Custom forms

    or

    Forms of \AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\13.0\Presets\Custom for theusernameC:\Users\

    The difference is that those in the program folder files appear in the list of forms in alphabetical order on the rest and those of the AppData show at the bottom of the list under a separator line.

  • How can I remove selected Custom view (s) of the event viewer Console tree?

    I looked at the MMC Help on create and manage custom views.

    I can't find a way to remove the custom filter views in the Console tree, which can be found on the left side of the event viewer.

    How can I remove selected Custom view (s) when they serve no more values?

    Problem solved

    I asked this question because I was unable to see what was going on in the event viewer and I couldn't find help in mmc HTML Help. However, now I see what's happening and I can give you a solution to my own question.

    Cause

    If I connect to the computer as a user with administrator privileges, I am able to use the event viewer to create a custom view filter that can be used by all users who have access to the event viewer. If I fix remove a view filter custom Console tree, I can't delete it unless I'm logged in as the user who created it.

    Solution

    1. Log the computer as the user who created the custom view.
    2. Start Event Viewer
    3. Use the right-click of the mouse on a custom view filter selected in the Console tree, open the drop down menu.
    4. Delete appears fourth in the bottom of the menu if and only if you are logged on as the user who created this view.
    5. Select Remove to remove the filter to custom view.

    If Delete does not appear in the drop-down menu, then it may not possible you connect as the user who created the custom view.
