How to produce a cut?

As a newbie to Illustrator, I have a problem trying to figure out how to produce a rectangle with a curve cut out according to the guidelines of this image. Cutting portion must be transparent for me as an image overlay. Could someone please advise what I know is a simple procedure?

Img08.gifThanks in advance.

Hi Jayne,

Here are some options for you

Option 1

1. draw your rectangle

2. Select the pen tool and click on the center of the rectangle on the left, this will add a new point

3. using the arrow keys on your shot of thumb keyboard the point to the right

4. by clicking on and now the tool pen in the tools Panel will reveal the tool Point Director conversion, this choice and dragging in the vertical direction on your new point converts it to a point of the curve.

Option 2

1. draw your rectangle

2. draw an oval over who represents the curved area being cut

3. open the Pathfinder Panel (window > Pathfinder)

4 both rectangle and oval selected choose less first plan in the Pathfinder Panel

Hope that helps

Paul

    Hello

    Has anyone been able to produce more than one type of output (pdf, afp, etc.) of a single transaction in DM?

    And could you tell how you did it? (parameters fsiuser or other)

    We use 11.3 and 12.2 currently and that you are interested in generating output AFP and PDF simultaneously for each transaction.

    Obviously, we can perform the transaction twice, once using PrinterType = AFP and using PrinterType = PDF in the fsiuser.

    Looking for a way to do it in one fell swoop.

    Hello world

    Can someone give me help with this example. I started working with PowerCLI and I struggle out of my result in an e-mail message.

    In the example below, I don't see any results in the email of the powercli command "Get - VM |" Select-Object Name, NumCPU, MemoryMB, ProvisionedSpaceGB.

    $smtpServer = "smtpserver".

    $HostName = $env: ComputerName

    $To = "[email protected]".

    # Send Message

    Send-MailMessage - SmtpServer $smtpServer - $From - to $To - subject $Subject - body $Body - BodyAsHtml

    This should give you a little nicer output in the form of a table.

I want that all the descriptions to be available at all times. Just click on the arrow, and the entire list is displayed. When the user selects an entry, the code associated with the discription fills a related attribute.

  • How and why to cut an Image?

    I export a Photoshop design in Dreamweaver. I know HOW to cut, but I'm having a hard time finding the reason WHY cut an import image in Dreamweaver. Why not simply import the entire image, as a single whole image?

    I also have difficulties in finding the best way to cut out a picture. This is very new for me. I looked at a Web page, I created there are almost 5 years (my first exposure to the design of web sites) and I cut out the top of the page in 3 images - I had two images of prominent on each side and in the middle in this context. Then I divided the central bar (with buttons) and each of the buttons made their slice/image.

    However, I just found a Web site where they finally have their design cut into three images - a logo, buttons and a picture of the top layer.

    This is the site I came across: http://designshack.net/articles/graphics/how-to-make-slicing-suck-less-tips-and-tricks-for-tranchage-un-psd /

    My cutting looks like the picture of the opening under the heading "Killing the Clutter" of this Web site, not the image of closing (their goal) in the same section.

    Why are they singling out the logo? Should I do this with my design?

    Why are they including all buttons in a slice, instead of individual slices? Is this OK to do? For the purposes of the rollover image, I thought they had to be separated.

    They do not save the background. Should they be? Unless they you import the background as one large image.

    I appreciate those who could recommend not to slice an image and do stuff with code instead, but I don't have the knowledge to go that route and I have to cut the image.

    WHY is a question. The answer is that it DEPENDS. It depends on your layout. I've never understood why people would be divides a picture say 800px x 800px in 10 pictures just of have reconnected them on the web page as an entire image (taking into account that it has no buttons, links, hot spots, etc.). 10 seprate images means that the server must send 10 different applications in order to rebuild this image. I imagine that most people get caught up in slices because they aren't sure how to build a different Web site. Unless the image is huge, it is best to apply http for a picture of 10. If a page has tons of server must like that, which only slows down the loading of the page.

    Why are they singling out the logo? Should I be doing this with my design?
    

    They can do this to create an image map or reversal of their logo image. You certainly don't want to use an image 400px x 400px if your reactive rollover image is only x 100px 30px. Unless you use an image on a bearing replacement method, sometimes it is better to create a css div or a class that defines the area for the turnaround.

    OK, I have to finish my answer here... the new layout of the forum is driving me CRAZY with all these "Server internal errors"

    Hi all

    I have google and google, but I can't do what seems to be a very simple task...

    In the short term, I'm about to provide a projection of backdrop of clips I have source on a CIRCULAR projection screen.

    I therefore call in afternoon CS3 produce a clip that has a single circular border.

    I realize this will cut off part of my 4:3 images, but that's fine, because the circular screen!

    Similarly, is there an effect - like a lens effect - that will do the job and distort the image in a circle and give the impression of a fisheye and then leave a black border where the film was "removed"?

    No response to this will be really welcome.

    A1     100      3     4     0     0     0
    B2      34     55     0     3     4     0

    Is it possible to produce above output? Any help will be appreciated.

    Oracle DB Version - Oracle 8i

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    This is called a pivot .
    The basic technique is something like:

    SELECT     item
    ,     SUM (CASE WHEN state = 'MS'  THEN value ELSE 0)     AS ms
    ,     SUM (CASE WHEN state = 'GOA' THEN value ELSE 0)     AS goa
    ,     SUM (CASE WHEN state = 'UP'  THEN value ELSE 0)     AS up
    ,     SUM (CASE WHEN state = 'PB'  THEN value ELSE 0)     AS pb
    ,     SUM (CASE WHEN state = 'DL'  THEN value ELSE 0)     AS dl
    ,     SUM (CASE WHEN state = 'TN'  THEN value ELSE 0)     AS tn
    FROM     table_x
    GROUP BY  item;
    

    but this requires you to know indicates how many there are, and what they are, when you write the query.

    Since you have not, you must run a preliminary motion that will generate a select like the one above, or at least SUM expressions for variable columns. This is called dynamic SQL code , and a technique to do this is included below. (The example uses COUNT, but any aggregate, including the SUM function, work).

    Another possibility is the aggregation of the chain, where instead of individual columns for each State, you have a huge column VARCHAR2, formatted to look like separate columns. The avaiable tools to do this in Oracle 8.1 are quite poor, however, so I think you're better with dynamic SQL.

    /*
    How to Pivot a Table with a Dynamic Number of Columns
    
    This works in any version of Oracle
    The "SELECT ... PIVOT" feature introduced in Oracle 11
    is much better for producing XML output.
    
    Say you want to make a cross-tab output of
    the scott.emp table.
    Each row will represent a department.
    There will be a separate column for each job.
    Each cell will contain the number of employees in
         a specific department having a specific job.
    The exact same solution must work with any number
    of departments and columns.
    (Within reason: there's no guarantee this will work if you
    want 2000 columns.)
    
    Case 0 "Basic Pivot" shows how you might hard-code three
    job types, which is exactly what you DON'T want to do.
    Case 1 "Dynamic Pivot" shows how get the right results
    dynamically, using SQL*Plus.
    (This can be easily adapted to PL/SQL or other tools.)
    
    NOTE: Using SQL*Plus file I/O, as in this example, is just
    one of many ways to do dynamic SQL.

    EXPLANATION:
    The basic pivot assumes you know the number of distinct jobs,
    and the name of each one.  If you do, then writing a pivot query
    is simply a matter of writing the correct number of ", COUNT ... AS ..."\
    lines, with the name entered in two places on each one.  That is easily
    done by a preliminary query, which uses SPOOL to write a sub-script
    (called dynamic_pivot_subscript.sql in this example).
    
    The main script invokes this sub-script at the proper point.
    In practice, .SQL scripts usually contain one or more complete
    statements, but there's nothing that says they have to.
    This one contains just a fragment from the middle of a SELECT statement.
    
    Before creating the sub-script, turn off SQL*Plus features that are
    designed to help humans read the output (such as headings and
    feedback messages like "7 rows selected.", since we do not want these
    to appear in the sub-script.
    Turn these features on again before running the main query.
