How to create the layer mask using ellipse (circle) to show the face of the watch only?

just stuck - see how to get a job of layer mask using a brush, but can not get by with the help of an ellipse

What I'm after is:

* Start simple watch, with the face and band by photo

* want to apply a layer, so the only thing I see the circular face of the watch (no tape etc.) and that the base is clear (alpha)

May I ask what are the instructions step by step to achieve this goal by using layer masks & ellipse tool?  (i.e. not having to manually paint around the dial)

Here's the original image:

  1. Make a copy of the background and work on this copy of background layer.
  2. Use the elliptical selection tool, hold down the SHIFT key to draw a circular selection:
  3. Select use (on the menu bar)... Transform the selection to move the selection, and drag the sides of the selection at the edges of the dial:
  4. After you click the green check mark, use the selection... Inverse to select all items except the dial of the watch and press your delete key to remove such things:
  5. Your layers look like this:

Alternatively, if you want to use a mask, after step #3 hit the icon 'Mask' at the bottom of the Palette layers to create a mask layer automatically by using the selection:

    Mylenium, why comment you on the forums of Muse? I've never seen a useful comment on these forums. You seem to just upset against Muse all the time.

    in any case, definitely go with widgets Ecwid and J-26. They are the best.

    ECWID is certainly the easiest to customize muse and it's very easy for customers to add/manage products. Another thing that many people love in Ecwid, it's that you can host several stores account. If you know css/javascript then you can do this on your own, but if you want a widget that does, make these widgets.

    If you use CS2, you can use the layer style > stroke and adjust the opacity of fill to 0. It would be more difficult to make a dotted line. Most likely, you will need to create a mask for this.

  • Please show or ask how to create the value of arrayOfValues of setValuesAtTimes parameter?

    Hello AEScriptComm,

    I have a few small scripts that use the method setValueAtTime successfully placing a keyframe on the existing layers of maskPath, but as you can see in the scripts below, results of setValueSatTimeS errors using IE: "Array is not of the correct type", "value is not an array" or "Null is not an object", depending on ,...

    (A) what variable is used as the value of parameter IE:

    .maskPath;

    . maskPath.value;

    . maskPath.value.vertices

    (B) what kind of table is used as the parameter value as in:

    var addTheseKeys = new Array ((1,2,3,4);    (as a parameter of the time)...

    (with either)

    var keyValues = new Array([10,10],[100,100],[15,50],[100,120]);             ...." ]) "

    (GOLD)

    var keyValues = [[10.10], [100 100], [15.50], [100 120]];                               ... (Array of arrays? RE: " ]] " )

    I just read a 'push' of the values in a table may be necessary?, but I was hoping someone who knew setValuesAtTimes could show it please...

    1) .. How to create the value of arrayOfValues of setValuesAtTimes parameter?

    1 (a): WORK setValueAtTime script...

    App.Project.Item (1) .layer (1).property("Masks").property ("mask 1");

    var app.project.item = myProperty (1) .layer (1) .mask (1) .maskPath;

    myShape = app.project.item (1) .layer (1) .mask (1).maskPath.value;

    myProperty.setValueAtTime(1.0,myShape);

    1 (b): If there is no script setValuesAtTimes...

    prop1 = app.project.item var (1) .layer (1).property("ADBE_Transform_Group").property ("ADBE Position");

    var fourKeys = 4;

    var addTheseKeys = new Array (1,2,3,4),

    var keyValues = new Array (10, [10], [100 100], [15.50], [100 120]);

    var app.project.item = myProperty (1) .layer (1) .mask (1) .maskPath;

    myShape = app.project.item (1) .layer (1) .mask (1).maskPath.value;

    var myVertices = app.project.item (1) .layer (1) .mask (1).maskPath.vertices;

    myProperty.setValuesAtTimes (keyValues, addTheseKeys);

    app.beginUndoGroup ("Keys");

    ~ for (var k = 0; k < fourKeys; k ++)

    //~ {

    ~ prop1.setValueAtTime (keyValues [k], addTheseKeys [k]);

    //~ }

    myProperty.setValuesAtTimes (keyValues, addTheseKeys);

    app.endUndoGroup ();

    .. Thanks for any advise\suggestions,

    J

    (A). maskPath.value; It's always a Shape(). (maskPath is a property, not of a shape on its own, and maskPath.value.vertices is only a part of the shape data).

    (B) nothing of what you propose... that is why your failed script fails.

    var keyValues = new Array([10,10],[100,100],[15,50],[100,120]); and

    var keyValues = [[10.10], [100 100], [15.50], [100 120]]; are just as good as arrays of points, the only thing is that keyValues are arrays of objects Shape().

    Read the guide and script for how to report a form of this post (just wrote it...): http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1419866?tstart=0

    Your keyValues array should look like this: [keyValues0, keyValues1, keyValues2, keyValues3], where each entry is a Shape().

  • You will need to create a 'gradient mask' using a b &amp; w photo in image.

    I have not created a document again and I want a reflection on how to do it: I want to use a black and white image of continuous tone that is somewhat close to what would be a "masking" but with rounded edges - so he properly dismissed on the background image I want to use, do the black part of the image used as mask much of the effect of a gradient mask : the background image shows through everywhere where there is the 'black' and 'tone' of the image. I hope this makes sense.

    My first thought is to create a layer mask and then stick the black and white picture on that, but I don't know if it will work for accepting the "tones" of the image and working properly.

    Anyone had experience with this kind of thing that they could share and what steps should I take to ensure that this effect works?

    TIA,

    Ken

    Yes, your layer mask will accept 256 shades of gray as a mask.

    Option, click on the mask and paste the image use > adjsutments > reverse.

  • Satellite P750 PSAY1A: how to create the recovery Toshiba on the new HARD drive partition

    Hello

    I have an old Toshiba Satellite P750 (PSAY1A-01Y022). I just upgraded my memory from 4 GB to 8 GB and am preparing to take my 500 GB HARD drive 1 TB. I had to order the disk online and wait to happen.

    I always try to understand how to create the arrival of my new HARD drive Toshiba Recovery Partition. I do the same thing for an old book, I handled based on something similar to it's original factory State.

    I have reflected on the recovery partition, but does not know how it was created. It is not NTFS. Does anyone have experience in the creation of a Toshiba Recovery on a new HARD drive Partition?

    And the help is very appreciated.

    Thanks and regards,
    Dinesh

    Recovery partition can be created when you use the original Toshiba Recovery disk and install recovery image. Before the partitions to boot OS install will be automatically created, recovery image copied on a recovery and then partition as last step recovery image installation starts.

    A sort of migration of files from one to the other HARD disk is not solution.

    Only for laptop with factory will work and the usable recovery partition.

    The new logical table is right click on the MDB itself, for the join you generally in the business model diagram (again right click on objects).

    Maybe it's better if you start from a kind of tutorial to at least have an overview of what is happening where (layer business and physical layer etc.).
