• How to make a layer mask to type in CC?

  I am after this Tutorial: Photoshop: professional cleaning Logo - YouTube and can not find a way to make the mask layer type thing that makes the background show through. I know that the tutorial is for CS6, but they should be the same, right?

  The layer mask is the same for CS6 & CC. There are several ways to do so. But the video showed him using the masking of the text tool. It uses the quick mask to make the text - where the color pink. You can size your text by holding down the ctrl/cmd key to appear of the transformation handles. Once you are happy with the size of the text, click on the checkbox validate or ctrl/cmd + enter to change quick mask in a selection. The video then shows the selection used to create a mask on a layer. To invert the mask, and punch through the layer text to show the blue below, the opt/alt key has been pressed while the mask icon has been selected in the layers panel.

  

• 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:

• How to make a layer in Ultiboard mask?

  I need to create a mask layers (except paint coating PCB solder points). Tell me how to do it.

  Best regards, Vladimir.

  Hi Vladimir,.

  In Ultiboard, when you activate the layer of solder mask the color purple indicates areas where you can solder.  By default, all buffers SMT and TH are exposed are protected.

  If you want to get the mirror image, the only way is to export the file gerber.  In the export dialog box, you should be a 'negative image' option, enable the option.

• added page numbers to the Master Page. How to make top layer?

  Hello

  I've added the page to a new Master Page... numbers and works well.  But on these pages that have a column color at the outer edge (part of the design), the page number is hidden.

  I think I read in an article that I simply need to choose my numbers 'holders' on my Master Page page and make a part of the top layer.

  If that is correct, then I am close.  But would someone kindly advise me how to do this?  I did experiments in the tab layers, but see no obvious way to get there.

  Thank you very much

  Malcolm

  Create a new layer in the layers tab and drag it to the top if it is not already there. Select your page numbers and (in the layers palette), grasp the point that appears next to the layer where are your items and drag it to the layer where you want them to be.

  

• How to make invisible system reserved Partition?

  Original title: I can see the reserve system

  Hello

  I can see my system reserved 350 MB partition

  I remember well that was invisible in windows

  How can I get invisible again?

  Thank you

  Hi Yasharnesabian,

  Thanks for the reply.

  System reserved partition may appear in Windows Explorer if there is no drive letter assigned to it. We will remove the assigned drive letter for the system reserved Partition and restart the computer. Check if it helps.

  a. right click on the Start button , and then open disk management.

  b. right-click on reserved for the System Partition (F :). )

  c. click on change drive letters and paths.

  d. a new box will open, f: select and click on the Remove button.

  e. restart the computer and check whether or not system reserved Partition is listed in Windows Explorer.

• How to make the layer visible on and outside

  Hi, experts

  This is my script:

  docs var = app.documents.

  for (var i = docs.length - 1; i > = 0; i--) {}

  docs [i].layers.item ("Chi") .visible = true;

  docs [i].layers.item ("Chi") .locked = false;

  docs [i].layers.item ("Eng") .visible = false;

  docs [i].layers.item ("Eng") .locked = true;

  }

  Alert ("Done.")

  But how do the layer

  1. If the 'chi' layer visible = true; everything in "eng" visible = false

  'chi' locked = false; While 'eng' locked = true

  just to put the

  layer 'chi' visible = false; everything in "eng" visible = true

  'chi' locked = true; While 'eng' locked = false

  like two switch layers;

  respect of

  John

  Try this,

  var docs = app.documents;
  for (var i = docs.length-1; i >= 0; i--) {
      if(docs[i].layers.item("Chi").visible == true && docs[i].layers.item("Chi").locked == false)
      {
          docs[i].layers.item("Chi").visible = false;
          docs[i].layers.item("Chi").locked = true;
          docs[i].layers.item("Eng").visible = true;
          docs[i].layers.item("Eng").locked = false;
      }
      else if(docs[i].layers.item("Eng").visible == true && docs[i].layers.item("Eng").locked == false)
      {
          docs[i].layers.item("Chi").visible = true;
          docs[i].layers.item("Chi").locked = false;

• How to add a layer mask?

  It may be simple, but it seems confusing, please I need help

  Assuming that the variable myLayer is a layer object, the collection of all its masks is: myLayer.property ("ADBE Mask Parade");

  and his children are the groups of actual masks (which can be renamed). To add a mask to the collection, you do:

  var myMask = myLayer.property("ADBE Mask Parade").addProperty("ADBE Mask Atom");
  

  You can define the name, color, attributes of Rotobezier etc. (optional):

  myMask.name = "My mask";
  myMask.color = [1,0,0];
  myMask.rotoBezier = false;
  myMask.maskMode = MaskMode.ADD;
  

  To set its keyframable properties: property maskPath has special propertyType (SHAPE).

  You must create a Shape() object like this before you set the value:

  var myShape = new Shape();
  // set the vertices (coordinates of the vertices in layer coordinates, not comp)
  // + the inTangents (coordinates of the incoming Bezier handles with respect to the the corresponding vertices)
  // + the outTangents (coordinates of the outcoming Bezier handles with respect to the the corresponding vertices)
  // + the closed attributes
  var w = myLayer.width, h = myLayer.height;
  myShape.vertices = [[w/2, 0], [w,h], [0,h]];            // here: array of 3 "points"
  myShape.inTangents = [[0, 0], [0, 0], [0, 0]];        // array of 3 "vectors"
  myShape.outTangents = [[0, 0], [0, 0], [0, 0]];        // array of 3 "vectors"
  myShape.closed = true;
  // now set the value:
  myMask.property("ADBE Mask Path").setValue(myShape);
  

  In this example, all the tangents are 0 which gives a straight contour mask.

  Unless you have your loan of shape data, insert more complex values of the tangents is not so much straighforward.

• How to make a layer integer linkable?

  Hello guys

  I have a great animation with about 33 layers. Each layer continues for nearly 50frames (using 10 images per second) and they all have different content.

  I would like to add a link to each layer, but so far, I have only sucedeed for a single image in each layer an affair... Would like to know if it is possible to make the duration of the bindable layer.

  Also, since it has so many layers, is it possible to make buttons which, when a click on, jump to the previous layer?

  Ty in advance

  Layers are not Flash objects if you can't link to them.  You can link what they contain.  If you want to li8nk all that is in a layer, then you must create as a movieclip in which 50 executives of which it is composed are internal to the movieclip timeline of the movieclip.

  I don't know what you mean as much as you want to be able to have buttons that bring you from one layer to the other.  The layers are parallel entities so if you're in a scenario, you are in all of its layers simultaneously

• How to make a layer corresponds to the size of the model?

  Rather than drag the corner points and a layer to make it fit the size of the model (1920 x 1080) to the eye, is there a typo or a method that will do it automatically and accurately?

  Not quite sure what you're saying. As lasvideo said, the size can easily be defined for solids. For everything else you can wanan look the Fayer--> Transform editing options in the menu and the associated keys...

• How to make a layer not deform or bend at all?

  I don't know miss me just a click box or something.  I have a robot character and I don't want her body not bend or deform at all with my movements.  I want to shift and other with my movements, but not deform.  I tried to add a bunch of fixed points or sticks, but the robot's chest as well as the button and such decorations keep warping with movements.  I just do this layer or rigid group?

  Thanks again!  Help from everyone has been great.

  The have no move at all, try to move the body outside the character - which means that it will not be affected by the head at all.

  

  And then if you wanted the character to move slightly, you can save a pass with transform > Rotation to add some manual shift.

  If you want to keep them connected, I found the most likely to turn in the direction of parameters Face to the down - 25% or less - for the most minimal overall deformation for the character. And Yes, a lot of sticks.

  But it should be easier - we hope to give more control to the overall deformation in future versions.

• How to make a layer of transparent text over an image that scrolls?

  I looked through inspire them to Adobe Magazine and found something really amazing: the editor is added an effect of text-more-photo several times throughout the magazine (see http://inspire.adobe.com/, October 2014. Must be on the iPad to see the real effect. ("It's stories" by Dan Cowles has this effect).

  I was really confused to see that it fits perfectly my current project. I'm building a book on a recent trip to Iceland, which will be available for the iPad in the near future. So far, I used Adobe InDesign CC to create virtually the entire book, because I know little or nothing to the programming.

  My question is, how (he) did?

  Is it possible to do for someone with a limited knowledge? If this is the case, how can I do it?

  Thank you very much!

  Because Adobe inspire is made using DPS, so you can do what he does.

  At the top of the document using, Digital Publishing Suite help | Digital Publishing Suite help, there are links to topics such as commissioning, design and presentation, system requirements, etc.. Read more to get an overview. In addition, to download and read advice from DPS on the App Store.

  If you use Creative Cloud 2014, you should already have DPS tools at your disposal. DPS is supported for InDesign version 6 or greater. I found DPS fairly simple to use according to the information provided in the documentation as well as the help of this forum and the advice of DPS.

• How to make an invisible clip in CS3?

  Hello
  
  I know this sounds stupid, but I worked all the time with Flash MX and Flash 2004. Now I have CS3, and I want to do the following. I made an MP3 player, but I want to do a 'play' icon visible when the music plays and the icon of 'pause' visible when it is paused. For this purpose the 'play' icon should be invisible and vice versa. I have had this, but it gives an error:
  
  import flash.events.MouseEvent;
  pause_text._visible = false;
  play_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showPlay);
  
  function showPlay(event:MouseEvent):void
  {
  play_text._visible = true;
  pause_text._visible = false;
  }
  
  pause_btn.addEventListener (MouseEvent.CLICK, showPause);
  
  function showPause(event:MouseEvent):void
  {
  pause_text._visible = true;
  play_text._visible = false;
  }
  
  What I am doing wrong? In 2004 or MX, it was how to make invisible Clips. Help, please.
  
  Thanks in advance,
  
  Kind regards
  Ithiriel

  Cases which can be _property in AS2 are now property just in AS3. _X Yes is x, FLF is y and _visible is visible. This should work:

  function showPlay(event:MouseEvent):void
  {
  play_text. Visible = true;
  pause_text. Visible = false;
  }
