Join paths

• Problems with joining paths

  Could someone please explain why I often get an error message when I try to join two lines? I can't reproduce the error now, but I found the message more to stackexchange:

  "To register, you must select two open end points. If they are not on the same path, they can be on any text within graphics paths, and if two of them are grouped together, they must be in the same group. »

  Or maybe someone could translate the message in English?

  Thank you for your reply Jacob, but I always if sure I select only two anchor points.

  And I got a different error message earlier, saying that the selected objects cannot be joined because they are invalid objects (transparent traces, text, graphic objects, live paint group). So, there seems to be many cases where the function works everything simply.

  EDIT: I've found a workaround: when the paths cannot be joined because they have a live paint group, this group can be expanded. This closes the gaps that cannot otherwise be closed.

• Problem joining paths

  Hi-

  I have this one character, that I am creating, and I can't do things. I cut a piece of the character, left bottom of the 'A' and tried to reach higher up on the character. I sort of how I would like (a little rough of course ), but whenever I try to make the compound paths or to join them if not, get them to be a path, HE hesitates or makes things to look weird.

  Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

  This is IT CS4.

  Thank you.

  EDITED: I'm sorry, I saw that the file was still pending, so I posted this from scratch. This time looks like it's a go .

  RLIN,

  There is always a mask of clipping in the latest version; It can simply be deleted.

  However, there is at least an ugliness that can cause problems:

  The connection to the outside to the left of the bar is incorrect: instead of a single anchor Point, there are two, and the segments cross culminating in two sharp points. Zoom and shudder.

  My suggestion in post #5 opposes accidental double Anchor Points.

• Join paths and adding a shortcut key

  I have a two part question.  I do a chart right now that needs a lot of paths to reach intersections, then the excess path needs to be cut.  I found this tutorial that explains what I'm doing, and I'm using hi method.

  http://www.krankykids.com/cheatsheets/Illustrator/joining_paths.html

  First question, is there an easier way to do this without the need to move the paths in the layers window?

  Second question, I can assign a shortcut key for the item selection to delete in the layers window?  When I say remove selection, is that the little trash in the layers window.  As described in the tutorial, there you delting sections of path in the layers window, and I thought that it could go faster, if I could have a shortcut to the trash.

  Why is it important if I traced mode?

  I do not know. But I can verify that. I would say that a bug.

• Paths join and fill

  I am joining the paths for each region on this map and complete each of these regions. Can I join paths, but the filling is erratic. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  1125R,

  The solution possible (s) will depend on your version.

  The paths are not closed. In older versions, you must create a path closed for each area. In the latest versions, you can use the live paint.

• Connecting two points on the compound path

  Hi guys,.

  First time posting and had a little research but could not know what I needed - forgive me if the answer is and I am looking with the wrong keywords!

  I'm trying to change a font, that I turned into an object. I don't want the tail down to cross during the rest of the letter and I want also to shorten the tail, so I want to join paths, so I can modify it all as one. If you look at the pictures, I'm hoping to join them at the pink line; the second image shows the current paths.

  He is currently a compound path, if that makes a difference.

  Is it possible to get this happening, or is my best bet to trace it?

  Thank you!

  

  

  tashacarolina,

  IF I (put) understand it, if you initially return a compound path, then:

  (1) with the line Segment tool ClickDrag between Anchor Points where you would like the tail to be cut, then object > path > divide objects below, then a compound path output if necessary (unlikely);

  Now you have a simple path;

  (2) cut the ponytail where you want and remove the line to the main part.

  (3) you can adjust the shape of the tip where you cut in 1), if you want to curve.

• Output of virtual machines folder paths

  Hi guys, I need for the railways of the folder names for each attached to vcenter virtual computer and output. I used the code LucD set up, which is really great, but I need to adjust something, but can't seem to understand it (with my weak skills PS).

  The output that I get LucD code is as follows:

  Name	Data store	Path
  VM1	datastore1	New Datacenter\folder\VM1
  VM3	datastore1	New Datacenter\folder\VM3
  VM2	datastore1	New Datacenter\folder\VM2
  XPVM	datastore1	New Datacenter\Test Folder\subfolder\XPVM

  The only thing I have to deal with, it's that the path does not include the name of the virtual machine in the end I'm trying to do like this:

  Name	Data store	Path
  VM1	datastore1	New Datacenter\folder
  VM3	datastore1	New Datacenter\folder
  VM2	datastore1	New Datacenter\folder
  XPVM	datastore1	New Datacenter\Test dossier\sous-record

  Here's the code for LucD. How can I remove the name of the virtual machine of the result?

  $report = @)

  Get - VM | Get-View | %{

  $row = "" | Select the name, the data store, path

  $row. Name = $_. Name

  $row. Data store = (Get-view $_.) Datastore [0]). Summary.Name

  $current = get-view $_. Parent

  $path = $_. Name

  {}

  $parent = $current

  if($parent.) Name - only "vm") {$path = $parent. {Name + "\" + $path}

  $current is get-view $current. Parent

  } While ($current. Parent - no $null)

  $row. Path = $path

  $report += $row

  }

  $report

  One way to do that

  $report = @)

  Get - VM | Get-View | %{

  $row = "" | Select the name, the data store, path

  $row. Name = $_. Name

  $row. Data store = (Get-view $_.) Datastore [0]). Summary.Name

  $current = get-view $_. Parent

  $path = $_. Name

  {}

  $parent = $current

  if($parent.) Name - only "vm") {$path = $parent. {Name + "\" + $path}

  $current is get-view $current. Parent

  } While ($current. Parent - no $null)

  $path = [string]: join ('-',($path.)) Split('\') [0.. ($path). Split('\'). (Count-2)]))

  $row. Path = $path

  $report += $row

• Combine the path, as in Illustrator

  Hi all

  Can someone help me,

  Is it possible to combine paths in a path of the only form?

  I am trying to create an icon for the user interface,

  is it possible to draw traces in a single layer? while I can join paths. Currently im copy paste paths from 1 layer to another.

  Its simple, I want just the same Illustrator "pathfinder"... options.

  If you have merged two or more forms, in either copy and stick to each other, or selecting and merging the layers form, select the merged form and in the Options drop-down bar choose "merge elements of form".

  

• Stealthily white path lines and compound

  I would appreciate a quick response to this if its possible that I have to send it to print very soon!

  I am trying to create a compound path to hide certain pieces and create letters, but there seems to be some kind of overlap with his leaving a white line where there shouldn't be one. Its all set up for magnetism and both forms are perfectly in line, but his leaving this white border.

  

  The upper part of each letter is basically just 2 circles of semi, the diameter being where is the white line. I hope that the lines are still visible on the screens low resolution...

  Anyone know how to get rid of this line or whether it will still be printing?

  See you soon

  What Scott says.

  And then, you would like to do some Pathfinder unite to join paths and to simplify things.

  There seems to be no reason to have these joints out there.

• PowerShell remoting to install VMWare tools

  Greetings

  It is true that it is probably focused more on PowerShell and less on VMware VMware tools is the target

  I'm trying to write a script to install VMware tools remotely on the virtual machines that do not have VMware tools installed.

  So far I have the below...

  { Invoke-Command -Session $RMSession -ScriptBlock { }$ExecuteEXE = Join-Path -Path $CDRom -ChildPath $Subpath}

  { Invoke-Command -Session $RMSession -ScriptBlock { }start-process $executeEXE}

  output

  Remove-PSSession *

  Disconnect VIServer * -confirm:$False

  
  

  I confirmed that $executeEXE = indeed Z:\setup.exe s - v - SB ADDLOCAL = ALL REBOOT = R

  When I run the script in the ISE, I get:

  Start-Process: this command cannot be executed due to the error: the system cannot find the specified file.

  Online: 1 character: 14

  + start-process < < < < $executeEXE

  + CategoryInfo: InvalidOperation: (:)) [Start-Process], InvalidOperationException)

  + FullyQualifiedErrorId: InvalidOperationException, Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.StartProcessCommand

  It is true that I am very inexperienced with PowerShell remoting.

  It seems that when I run the script it seems in fact be invoking the command on the remote computer, but rather on the local computer. VMware tools are piling up and the path in $executeEXE is 100% correct and the PSSession is also open, no doubt, but not magic?

  Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  Greetings LucD

  Looks like I may have found the problem.

  Looking for a way run the background process, so that I can do a get-process, while he was running to show he was running, I discovered that start-process allows you to specify the - ArgumentList parameter. (windows - start a detached in PowerShell background process - Stack Overflow) (2 responses)

  So, it looks like this:

  Invoke-Command - Session $RMSession - ScriptBlock {"$CDRom = Get - WmiObject - class Win32_CDROMDrive | select drive"}

  | ForEach {$_.} Disk}; $Subpath = '\setup.exe '; $ExecuteEXE is $CDRom join-Path-Path - ChildPath $Subpath;. start-process $executeEXE - ArgumentList's - v - SB ADDLOCAL = ALL REBOOT = R'}

  To my surprise translates:

  [Test01]: C:\ PS > Get-Process of installation *.

  Manages the NPM PM (K) k VM (M) CPU Id ProcessName

  And VMware tools installed.

  Thank you very much for your time and trouble. Always very appreciated!
