Make a clipping mask for the letters/numbers made by brush or pencil?
I wonder weather or not I can draw something with the brush or pencil and make a clipping of the mask.
whenever I try the letters just go empty and my photo that i want to clip disappears.
is anyway to achieve still, or is it just not possible?
Thank you
Job
Yes, it is quite possible.
Two things: the use of closed paths. And if you have multiple objects, you must do a compound of them before you make a mask.
You can also use the direct type of masking. Simply put in front of the image, select both and Cmd + 7

Difficulty to make a clipping mask in Photoshop
I've implemented the following:
I would like to make a clipping mask of all of the objects above the 'text' layer (so that all the stuff from the layers above applies only to the letters), but I'm fighting. On the one hand, when I go to separate 'Group 1' it changes the complexion of the graphics and makes it darker for a reason any. Also, when I merge the layers above a 'text' I get the following:
Someone knows how to do this?
NM, I found the answer:
- Place all layers above a 'text' in a group (it is acceptable to nest groups).
- CTL/Cmd-click on the thumbnail of the layers of 'Text' Panel to load as a selection.
- With your new 'master group' targeted, click on the "New layer mask" icon in the layers panel.
This will create a layer mask on the group to which applies the content group only for the non-transparent pixels on the text layer, which I think is what you're trying to do.

Can't make a clipping mask?
Hello: Level: Newbie'ish OS: Win7 64 bit Illy: Cs6
I'm stuck with a few steps in a tutorial
Here is the link: http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials/icon-design/how-to-illustrate-a-stethoscope-icon/
My troubles are at the stage #12
Everything works fine until I get to the part where it says: "copy the Crimson circle and glue it to the front.
... first of all, I think that the copy must cover everything, right? At least it like that picture of the tutorials. Well, it does not cover, and it seems to stay in place.
I look in the layers palette and you can tell that a copy was made and I look under Edit, and he said to the title of the cancellation: Undo Paste in front.
I'm supposed to select the Crimson Circle copy then the mixture and then go to object > clipping mask > make
Rather than run, I get an Error Message that says: "cannot make a clipping mask, The Top selected object must be a path, a compound shape, a text object, or a group of people.
No matter what I do, I can't do a clipping mask in this way.
Someone at - it ideas? I have read a lot about a clipping mask today and looked in the FAQ nothing helps.
I'd be greatly Grealy appreciate all help.
(If you have been affected by the Sandy storm I hope all is well with you, that you are doing better and that you stay warm. God speed.)
Thank you very much for taking the time to read my post and for trying to help me.
Copy paste the copied object in front of the selection before and that if there is no selection then forwards (at the top of the stack) in the layer highlighted or the top of the stack in the same layer if the option "Paste remembers Layers" is checked in the menu of the layer of the Panel. The tutorial is unable to say at this stage that you must deselect first object you copied or select the object you want to paste in front of, which in your case is the mixture.
You cannot use an object as a clipping mask, and that's why you are getting the error. When you select a top-level object a regular path as the circle you try to stick to the mixture so the clipping will not work.

on sunbeam clipping mask changes the transparency / appearance?
Hi, quick question:
I have a poster that contains a vector of sunbeam (as the form found in photoshop "shapes" - circle with beams that project outwards). Anywho, I have this form in my file illustrator and need to clip the edges off the coast for the customer who wants the piece to have a border white 1 "on the edges of the drawing or model 44d.
When I place a box empty / form on the rays of the Sun and then click "make a clipping mask" it changes the appearance / dye rays of the Sun. I have a multiply transparency applied to the sunbeam - how can I preserve the original aspect if I need to put a white border / cut the edges of the sunbeam? Is there a better option than the clipping mask, or am I missing a step somewhere?
Thank you
Chemol
First, select both rectangles.

Hello
This could be due to a host file incorrectly configured as hosts of operating system files map the hostnames to IP addresses. A misconfigured hosts file can affect the ability of your computer to connect to the Adobe activation servers.
Follow these steps to see if there is a problem with your hosts file and if necessary
Please follow the steps below:
- Click Start > run, type % systemroot % \system32\drivers\etcand press enter.
- Right-click on the hosts file, and then select Open. Select the application Notepad open the hosts file.
- Save the hosts file: choose file > record under, save the file as hosts.backup, and then click OK.
- Look for the hosts file for entries that refer to adobe (for example, 127.0.0.1 activate.adobe.com, or 127.0.0.1 lm.licensing.adobe.com) and delete these entries.
- Save and close the file.
- Restart your computer and try to turn it on again.
Kind regards

When I use my clipping on an image mask, fills the form I use the whole layer instead of just being a small shape Panel and then I put my picture on the shape layer, a clipping mask, but the form becomes clear with just a slight edge. The photo behind it does not move. I did this project of class before and it worked fine so I'm not sure if I have something started or... Any thoughts?
I thought about it. That's all just stupid on my part and a bit of frustration because photoshop is my sworn enemy of then adobe added in. Thanks tho!

With the help of Mocha in After Effects to make masks for the classification in Speedgrade
I just discovered that there is a plugin that comes with AfterEffects CC called "Mocha", it's a track quite powerful tool of creation. And... it can be used to create masks which SpeedGrade can then rank, even masks of caterpillars that currently Sg may be uneven with.
If I understand correctly the basic procedure is to create an adjustment in PrPro layer, then create a new computer with one more in Ae, create and apply a Mocha "form", including any order tracking, then going back to PrPro and through her link Direct to the Sg, and then we can rank a mask of sections of key that will work as expected. I am that noting on the forum just as something for the people, and of course... any that with all the experience in the use of masks in Mocha is MORE than welcome jump in and ' splain us!
Neil
Well, of course, it's a... little more complicated than that. You cannot use the freebie Mocha plugin, you must buy the stand-alone for $95 or more, then use it to make a shape... and learn how to use this program as well. So... some extra expenses, some additional necessary training, but... then we can get the caterpillars & complex masks which can be classified in Sg.

Apply a clipping mask for an item that's envelope distort?
I'm creating a logo for a uni project.
I created my logo in black and white, is simply a word that I have envelope deformed in a circle.
I now want to apply a clipping mask to give it a gold leaf effect, it works when I do normal typed text but not in my text that had been published.
Can someone tell me if it is possible to create a clipping with gold leaf mask, when I distorted the text already?
When I apply the envelope distort after the clipping mask, it does not give me the same results...
k,
You can object > envelope distort > Expand, then use it as the clipping to the clipping mask.

How can I copy some clipping masks including the relative positions of multiple images?
I have a number of images of microscope on the same subject that were made under three different conditions. I would like to use clipping masks to crop the images in the same way (the same size, but also the same position relative to the corners/sides of the images. Where it was inconsistent, I made an image to try to explain what I want to achieve (the same portion of each image for each game):
Thank you, Jacob. I don't know that is easier or more efficient, but I ended up inserting all of the images on top of each other, and copy and paste in place (Ctrl + Shift + V) my rectangle. Then I chose a rectangle and an image and apply the mask (Ctrl + 7) and then sent it to the back with (Ctrl + Shift + []) before repeating.

Mask for the rounded rectangle?
Hi there, hope someone can guide me on this.
In Photoshop (CS4) on a layer, I have a round-corner rectangle with some effects (gradient, shadow overlay).
It sits on a background that is larger than the rectangle, and that has its own effects on it.
I have several pictures of loans that are standard rectangular (i.e. no round corners). What I want is to have one of these images appear inside and completely fill the round corner rectangle, I guess from a mask any? Whereas if I change the size of the round corner rectangle, it shows just more (or less) image behind her, but is not spread outside the limits of the round corner rectangle.
I hope I could describe it effectively - the forum is currently not allow attachments image :-(
Thank you in advance for help with this.
P
You can do this by making a rectangle shape layer to rounded corners (form 1)
and then put your picture in a layer (Layer 1) above the shape layer.
With Layer 1 still in activity, go to layer > create clipping mask.
You can then change the blending mode of the gradient overlay in the overlay.
Then with the active shape layer, resize your rectangle to your liking.

Try to make a clipping mask - HELP!
So I'll try to do for this graph clipping mask image 34, I want it to look like 35.
I've got the guy of contruction on layer 1 and cut the two outputs on layer 2 preceding, I have grouped all and click on mask of clipping/do and nothing happens. I want the two cuts to cut the sections on the subject of contruction.
Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?
Dan, hold,.
Here's what I did:
1 leave the two white forms at the front
2 send the black construction guy in the back
3. Select the entire document
4 effect/Pathfinder > less front/subtraction
Do not use the effect, use the Pathfinder palette, delivered with Transform and Align palettes.
Then it should work.
Less prior is the name of the option in the new version (s), shape box in old subtraction.
