I need help creating a vector mask with an adjustable edge or fade, can anyone help?

I need help creating a vector with an adjustable edge mask or disappear so that I can surround a hand drawn - isolate the background so that I can black out around the hand, the hand a hair above, so I can not just pen tool, can anyone help?

I recommend starting with a layer mask based on the green channel, edition that with the curves to get a decent contrast and then paint in the areas needed.

  • Create vector masks (with the pen tool)

    I used Photoshop to make masks to cover things which I then import in first to use during the video.

    To do this I have been using a still of the video, then using the pen to select the part of the image I want to use as a camouflage. Once I described in section, usually I right-click to make a vector mask.

  • You will need to create a 'gradient mask' using a b & 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.

    Hi everyone, is there anyone who knows how to make a rectangle to fill with two colors? for example a red pantone 032 C and black.

    What I've done, I've done two rectangles on each other to the same corders.

    The less one I filled out (Pantone red 032C 100% and 100% transparent) and the more with (black 50% and 50% transparency).

    Is it? Is this correct or there is another way?

  • need help to set up Time Capsule with hub of sky

    Hi, I bought time Capsule and followed the instructions re. Connection cable internet hub in wide band directly on port WAN on TC. And yet nothing is happening outside orange flashing and message of airport utility saying it could not connect to the internet. I bought an Ethernet cable, just in case and tried to connect it to LAN to LAN, and I was able to create a 'network' but always seeing flashed. Can anyone help? Thank you!!

    El Capo can be really rotten networking.

    The skyhub is a router... I think it's okay... If you connect a computer directly into it, you should have internet?

    The TC may work very well in this configuration.

    Ethernet connector of skyhub LAN WAN TC as you did originally... correctly.

    So I highly recommend ethernet to the computer... because it helps no end. And even to pass the airport utility to use ethernet instead of wireless.

    Here (if obvious really that you would have ethernet under other Wi - Fi... don't know why I found totally by chance?)

    The configuration... make the TC must go to bridge mode...

    It is Off (bridge mode) on the network tab.

    And you need to create a wireless network with a different name to the skyhub.

    You can probably do it manually now without too many problems.

    And even without ethernet connection... Although reliable then ethernet is streets ahead wireless.

    Click on the TC icon in airport utility.

    Click on change... at the bottom right on the summary.

    Now you can fix it up. Click on the network and make sure that it says Off (bridge mode) I posted my configuration, but you do not follow that... I just allows you to see where everything is.

    Click on wireless and fix that up.

    You can even click on the base station and correct the name and the master password... so that all the names are short, without spaces and alphanumeric pure.

    NOT RECOMMENDED APPLE NAMES that are FALSE.

    If you have an ipad/iphone the iOS version of the utility is often better to get this right than the Mac version... particularly in the later version of the Mac OS.

  • Need help with html and as3 dropdown

    First of all Hello!  I need to create a html for a company Web site. The design that I did is in photoshop... .and I need to create a menu drop-down. The first question is: can I create the drop in flash without having to use html frames? Can I connect one of the menu buttons in an html page so that it loads in the same window of the browser to another html page (If Yes... with what?)?  Please... I need to know... because I prefer simply to apply it in flash rather then html. And the second question is: If the scene in flash can be transparent? Because if I do the menu inside, it will be impossible to match all the dimensions of the stage... and I would like to integrate it in an html page, if possible without the stage color >... Thanks in advance!    Tudor

    For the opening of the pages you wish to study using the navigateToURL() function.  The help documentation provides information abiout it year how to control the appearance of the window as well.

    To make the transparent scene is more than a html one aspect of Flash element, if you can set it to publish it.  The key is to set the wmode paraemter which is located in the "transparent" html embed code  I don't know if all browsers supports this feature, but I think that many are willing to.

  • Help, please! I need help installing own window 8 with LEGACY BOOT OFF

    Hello world!

    I am running in a difficult situation. During the installation of windows 8 UEFI with Legacy Boot Support off the POWER, then the WINDOWS SETUP doesn't detect any HARD or SSD drive. Then I had to install windows 8 UEFI Legacy BOOT SUPPORT market. When all install them, I turn OFF LEGACY SUPPORT, my computer running INACCESSABLE_BOOT_DEVICE error.

    Experts please help.

    With Legacy BOOT SUPPORT works, my computer so slow startup and there are too many startup steps taken in place.

    Thank you!

    SUMMARIZE:

    1: install Windows own 8 UEFI

    2: SECURE BOOT: WE

    3: THE LEGACY SUPPORTED STARTING: OFF

    Dear KNRK!

    I'm so happy. Everything seems to be in trouble, so I have to use the legacy on support. I installed the windows 8 install any update, and then upgrade to windows 8.1. The first initialization of the windows 8.1 installation, I go into the BIOS, then choose restore default.

    Like a charm, everything's fine. Now he worked on Legacy support OFF and Secure Boot on.

    BTW, I'm sharing my EXPERIENCE on installing windows 8 with UEFI.

    1. create UEFI USB BOOTABLE WITH RUFUS

    2. IF can detect the drive HARD or SSD IN WINDOWS SETUP is FINE

    If 2 is not available

    Go to 3

    3. TURN ON LEGACY SUPPORT

    3A - CREATE UEFI-BOOTABLE USB WITH RUFUS USNG MBR SYSTEM FOR BIOS

    4-USE TROUBLESHOOT - COMMAND PROMT

    5. CLEAN THE OS INSTALLED HDD

    6 - CONVERT TO GPT

    7-ACTIVE

    8 - RESTART

    9-HDD DETECTED

    10 INSTALL

    IF ENCOUNTER 03200024 ERROR 0 x

    SOLUTION - REMOVE ALL HARD DRIVE - JUST LEAVE THE OS INSTALLED HARD DRIVE

    AFTER FINISH INSTALLATION - REINSERT THE OTHER HARD DRIVE.

    TO OBTAIN AGAIN A MISTAKE.

    SOLUTION - CLEAN HDD VIA USB BOTABLE WITH MBR SCHEME FOR UEFI

    CONVERT HDD OS INSTALLED TPG, ACTIVE

    THEN AGAIN CREATE USB BOOTABLE WITH TPG TO UEFI SYSTEM

    EVERYTHING'S OK. BUT LEGACY SUPPORT MUST BE ON.

    INSTALL ALL OF THE UPDATE, INSTEAD OF UPGRADING TO WINDOWS 8.1

    IN THE FIRST REBOOT, GO TO BIOS THEN RESTORE THE DEFAULT SETTINGS.

    EVERYTHING'S FINE.

    GOOD LUCK, EVERYBODY

  • Need help with massive query

    I have a huge report that gathers data on all facets of society to display in one place. I built a procedure to calculate and store data (as it gets processed once and read often), but the query to display it is huge - on lines of 1950 or 104 KB. I can run the report in SQL Developer, but I need it in the APEX, which is limited in its report area to 32 KB per request. The report is essentially the same song over and over and often referencing each of the calculations saved in a particular order. Here is an example of a section of report:
    ...
    union
    select 833 as SCTN_ID, 'Efficiency' as SCTN
         , 'Variance' as TTL
         , (select to_char(GOAL-ACTUAL) from vf_run_byweek_dtl a
             where a.run_id = p.run_id and a.section = 'HARD_BRAKES'
               and a.period_start = to_date(:P2007_LAST_DAY,'MM/DD/YYYY')-6) as WK1
         , (select to_char(GOAL-ACTUAL) from vf_run_byweek_dtl a
             where a.run_id = p.run_id and a.section = 'HARD_BRAKES'
               and a.period_start = to_date(:P2007_LAST_DAY,'MM/DD/YYYY')-13) as WK2
         , (select to_char(GOAL-ACTUAL) from vf_run_byweek_dtl a
             where a.run_id = p.run_id and a.section = 'HARD_BRAKES'
               and a.period_start = to_date(:P2007_LAST_DAY,'MM/DD/YYYY')-20) as WK3
         , (select to_char(GOAL-ACTUAL) from vf_run_byweek_dtl a
             where a.run_id = p.run_id and a.section = 'HARD_BRAKES'
               and a.period_start = to_date(:P2007_LAST_DAY,'MM/DD/YYYY')-27) as WK4
         , (select to_char(GOAL-ACTUAL) from vf_run_byweek_dtl a
             where a.run_id = p.run_id and a.section = 'HARD_BRAKES'
               and a.period_start = to_date(:P2007_LAST_DAY,'MM/DD/YYYY')-34) as WK5
         , 'var' as CLASS
      from vf_run_byweek p
     where p.org_id = :P2007_ORG_ID
       and p.last_day = to_date(:P2007_LAST_DAY,'MM/DD/YYYY')
    ...
    There are about 20 areas of report - not all the same size - and each area has generally the actual target, variance and variance as % displayed for 5 weeks at a time on an ongoing basis - so a grid of 5 x 9 for each area once you add in the variable column headers, etc. The above example gives me a single line of the 5 or so in a section.

    I need a way to get around the limit of 32K. I tried this building as a point of view, but I need to pass parameters to select the date and the organization. Can anyone suggest a solution? (PS, I'm trying to stay away from a stored procedure, if possible in a standard report format will be uploaded to csv.)

    It does not help

    of vf_run_byweek p
    where p.org_id = v ("P2007_ORG_ID")

  • Question about the functionality of vector mask

    Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to Photoshop CS 5 so I apologize if I'm asking the wrong type of questions, here goes:

    When you work with vector masks you can:

    (1) "the link" or a vector mask with the other images? ' sharing ' a picture (for example) if I did 'A Building' then duplicated, but wanted to change what build a looked like, I have to only change the mask of the source, then the copies would be updated.

    (2) move the independent image of the vector mask (it seems that I can only move the vector mask, not the image itself). Or in other words: I can move the image and have the mask to follow, instead of being only able to move the vector mask within the limits of the image?

    My application of the question:

    I do a top-down 2D layout of a zone of type "Paste". I did to fill the buildings, building A, B, C, etc. and use multiple copies of each building. Ideally, I would like to be able to 'link' or share say building has a vector mask with all other instances of building A (so that when I change the master, they all change to the new form of mask). The second behavior I have trying to find is the ability to move without moving layer where the vector mask is on this layer (since it seems that you can only move where the mask is, which means that even if I could share masks, they all finish by in the same sense of place I have to re - position each hand again.)

    Any ideas are appreciated, thank you for reading.

    When you work with vector masks you can:

    (1) "the link" or a vector mask with the other images? ' sharing ' a picture (for example) if I did 'A Building' then duplicated, but wanted to change what build a looked like, I have to only change the mask of the source, then the copies would be updated.

    Yes, it's possible, but not with the classic system layer vector mask in Photoshop. Layer masks are part of a layer and not the layers themselves, so that they can be converted into a reusable object.

    The solution is to avoid vector layer masks and use a clipping/layer instead mask. A clipping/layer mask CAN be converted into a smart object that is reusable, and when you change one, all the other instances are also changing.

    The second part of the solution is to convert the layers contained both the clipping/layer to a smart object mask. Then the batch group. By the way, if your buildings are made up of several elements simply to include these additional elements in the clipping group. Another advantage is that each of the elements may still have its own normal layer mask. Win win situation. And layer effects can be applied to layers/clipping masks, once again what is impossible for layer masks. It also opens the doors to a much less destructive workflow.

    (2) move the independent image of the vector mask (it seems that I can only move the vector mask, not the image itself). Or in other words: I can move the image and have the mask to follow, instead of being only able to move the vector mask within the limits of the image?

    This is also solved with the use of layers/clipping masks - the content and the mask can be moved independently in regular layers. Another advantage is that the two can also be transformed individually.

    My application of the question:

    I do a top-down 2D layout of a zone of type "Paste". I did to fill the buildings, building A, B, C, etc. and use multiple copies of each building. Ideally, I would like to be able to 'link' or share say building has a vector mask with all other instances of building A (so that when I change the master, they all change to the new form of mask). The second behavior I have trying to find is the ability to move without moving layer where the vector mask is on this layer (since it seems that you can only move where the mask is, which means that even if I could share masks, they all finish by in the same sense of place I have to re - position each hand again.)

    Any ideas are appreciated, thank you for reading.

    So here's my solution. I made a sample with two buildings, the view from above which could be reused as desired:

    (1) first of all create groups for each building and place the content to those. Then trace layer vector shapes on the content. Set the transparency for layers of mask to a reasonable of opacity for masking easier.

    (2) put the vector shape under the layer of content for each building. Then, for (1) and (2), , click on the border between the content and the shape layer. (

    (3) then we will turn this building into recyclable items. Convert each content and layer to a smart object clipping mask. Then rename these layers of dynamic object into something sensible (honestly, I forgot to label the layers well earlier, but you catch my meaning here ;-)

    Fact! To clone each building, duplicate layer groups. For each instance that you can move the content (which is handy if you share multiple charts of building in the same bitmap or illustrator file), or you can decide to move the mask in place. Or both. It is the same for the transformation. Your choice. To move or transform a building, select the layer group.

    To change or modify the masks or the contents, double-click the smart object of your choice and make a few changes.

    Also, remember that you can insert additional elements in a clipping group by placing it over the first layer and then clipped by clicking again on the border between them. So, in theory, you could start building different looking buildings by adding other dynamic objects in clipping groups. The sky is the limit! In this way, you can create several building blocks to build various buildings with different looks. And still limit the number of blocks - and any update-able.

    Unfortunately, that's when the workflow breaks down a bit: due to the implementation of the object dynamic in Photoshop, you can't change the mask or the contents of the building in context - instead, it opens in its own window of file. This can be somewhat mitigated by placing the two windows side by side (window-> fix--> double vertical installation).

    This brings us to the second caveat: when you make a change, the changes are not updated in real time in the master document. You must first save it. Still a bit of a flow of work, but when same breaker... At least you now have a workflow not destructive instantiated.

    The content of the dynamic object can be replaced easily with a right-click of the mouse on the smart object layer itself. Or use a dynamic object referenced externally instead if you prefer to generate your buildings in an external application.

    BTW, the layer of Photoline system is much more logical and easier to use for this type of work. Layer masks behave like regular diapers. Layers, groups, masks, layers of external file and so forth can be practically cloned and instantiated as smart objects, but the main object is editable in the context, and all the other instances updated in real time. So, it is more convenient. At least this is my experience.

    I hope this has been helpful! Now go build your cities. :-)

    PS: I thought: isn't Illustrator or InDesign is a much more logical choice for this type of work where you need access to reusable blocks of content? It would also be a more efficient workflow and faster - Photoshop is not really designed for this type of work. Illustrator and InDesign provide potentially out of better quality. You can also divide your work into the pages and so on. Here again, you would probably lose the flexibility of smart objects.

Maybe you are looking for
