Make layers of new form of clipping paths

Hello

I had this problem for a while now, since the upgrade to CS6. When I create a new path on a layer to create a path he keeps creating the path on a new shape layer. That means, when I have a way to create complicated I'm end up with 30 + layers form which should be selected and deleted individually backgrounds. With the old version, I could keep adding shapes on the same clipping path using the pen tool, however I can't seem to understand how to reverse the changes to keep all the way on one layer. Is there a way to do this?

I'd be very happy someone could give advice.

Thank you

Jamie

Please refer to the Options bar.

The tool is fixed"shape" to go? «If so, change it to ' path '.»

  • How to create a form of clipping as a slice of circle paths?

    I want to make a DVD label by dividing the circle into 8 equal slices (like cutting a pie 4 times). In each installment, I'll put a photo of an actor in it.

    I think I need to create 8 layer with 8 slices of picture, each layer Gets a clipping path that has the shape of a slice of 45 degrees of the circle. Once I have this setup I can paste photos into layers and adjust photos up to what it seems good in confines of each slice.

    The question is how to create these paths of clipping in the form for a share of the cake? I've already drawn a circle of 120mm (using the elipse tool), indicating the outer limit of the dvd label. But I do not know how to cut in 8 specific increments of 45 degrees of each. Help?

    Basically, fair value guides on tangents bounding the circle four and also two it crosses both horizontally and vertically. The intersections of the guide resulting allows to draw the eight sections of the circle. Then, just use the intersect mode in your tool path overlap each of these 8 triangles with a copy of the original circle.

  • How to make a new form in the Mainmenu submenu options?

    Hi you all form gurus.

    I desperately need your help.  Because I did receive one of the answers to my question, just thought to move the original title for the content below and edited the title and we hope to get more attention to my request for help:

    Why a new form in the submenu of the Mainmenu options is grey out?

    I added a new form as one of the options in a submenu in the Mainmenu.mmb.  But the new form is gray in the submenu.  The new form has been compiled OK without any errors, and I was able to create an executable file.  After addition of the new form of the form of application security, but the new form is always grayed out (not accessible). What seems to be a problem here!  (It's probably a very simple/simple problem of these gurus of forms there.)  BTW, we are always in forms 6i w / Oracle 10.2.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi all

    Finally, I thought about it and share the solution with you all.  I changed the article "Enabled" section in the palette property of the new item in the menu of the 'NO' to 'Yes' and because of this my new accessible form (i.e. it is is more gray in the submenu option.)  The thing that made me for awhile was enabled is set to 'NO' for all other submenu items and my way of thinking, that's why the new form must be different from the rest of the elements.  Lessons learned here is never assume anything until you try it.

    See you soon!

  • How to make Cut-Out with Clipping Path?

    Hello, help please?

    I need to provide a photo of an object that has been described as a 'Cut Out' and a Clipping Path must be included. Now I know this is not a rare condition, but I've never been asked before.  I tried to fill out the application, but unfortunately I was unsuccessful so far.

    OK... so with CS5. I cut the object using the feather (background selected then removed). I saved the way like a 'selection '. But what I ache to understand is this.

    The need is a jpeg file. And I know that if I flatten the file, then save in jpeg format, I'll lose the bottom of transparency and the article will be on white background. So if I send this file how the recipient find the clipping path - which I presume is the path that I saved in the paths tab?  Because when I flattened, I won't lose channels or paths. The captain that they will be an object of the required dimensions, they claimed, but it will be on a white background, therefore, he will not be able to simply 'fit' as a single item in any work they need to.

    Other elements were provided by other people and their file is a jpeg file, and he says he understands a clipping path.  So, I understand that this is possible, but I just can't get out!

    Sometimes I feel so dumb!

    Any help will be much appreciated

    Thanks in advance

    I don't think that you can incorporate a clipping path into a jpg file, but you can send a png image

    with transparency based on web or low range of printing. (not recommended).

    The usual method is .psd or .tiff with transparency or the clipping integrated.

  • remove objects from the background using a clipping path

    A number of years, I've learned a very easy way to remove objects such as logos from backgrounds using masks and then saving them as .eps files that might be included in the InDesign documents without funds. You would simply use the magic wand to make a selection, inverse, create a path and the rest I do not remember.

    Simply, I can't find the notes I had on how to do it and can't remember the steps. It would literally take 2-3 minutes at the most to do.

    Does anyone know of this method, or something similar and very simple. At best, I am a Photoshop basic user.

    SRiegel wrote:

    You don't need to (and probably shouldn't) eps more use.  This is an obsolete format.

    The clipping path will read as well in a PSD or a TIF.

    You can also use any Photoshop path recorded as a trace of shadow in InDesign, even if it has not been identified as one in Photoshop.  Object > Clipping Path > Options allows you to choose a Photoshop path in the file.

    At took the words out of my mouth.  PSD is the preferred format for most applications these days.  You can choose to import as a single merged object or keep the layers.  EPS works well with Photoshop.

    In response to Sid, if you use a clipping path to draw a logo, then you might as well make the logo as a vector of the form of the original using as a model.  I regularly take this approach fuelled the logos of low resolution for things like sponsors etc.  Because you do not use the raster version, you can n to facilitate tracking it.  All the perpendicular lines of the limits of the image (don't know why I don't have not just "square") can be stored neatly by use of Guides, but you can also force the path points to have a square to the previous point by holding down the SHIFT key.  The resulting vector shapes can be saved as custom shapes, but I use libraries as you can organize them better.

  • Create the work around plan group, unless there is a clipping path, and then create the work around clipping path plan

    Hello again everyone.

    I was able to work on a lot of this code to other people's questions, but I hit a snag in my if/else clause structure... I need to make a plan to work around each groupItem of high-level layer [0]. This part is cake... unless there is a clipping mask. Visible limits do not work when there is a clipping mask. So, I built some of the loops that browse the pathItems search the clipping mask and return the visibleBounds said mask. However, I can't find how to structure the if clause in a way that will create the plan of work around the clipping mask when one exists.

    I am successful to find the visibleBounds of the mask and the creation of the appropriate graphic board, but it is ALSO to create a work plan around the visible boundaries of the entire group. How framing an if clause to determine if a work plan has been done around the clip path already and therefore not create a second work plan around the visible boundaries of the groupItem together? I guess I would need some sort of function to determine if createdArtboardAroundClip = true and if so, skip this group...

    Thank you all.

    Here is the code:

    var aB = docRef.artboards;
    var docLayers = docRef.layers;
    var layer1 = docLayers[0];
    var groupLevel1 = layer1.groupItems;
    
    for (a = 0; a < groupLevel1.length; a++){
        var groupLevel2 = groupLevel1[a].groupItems;
        var vB = groupLevel1[a].visibleBounds
        
        for (b = 0; b < groupLevel2.length; b++){
            var paths = groupLevel2[b].pathItems;
            
            for (c = 0; c < paths.length; c++){
                if (paths[c].clipping == true){
                    var clipBounds = paths[c].visibleBounds;
                    aB.add(clipBounds);
                    break;
                    }
                }
            }
        aB.add(vB);
        }
    

    Oh sorry, I forgot that one.  I was able to view the image basically to see what is happening.  Okay, so I saw a problem, you have one of your straps closure irrelevant.   Your first nested for loop does not close where you want.

  • Clipping path - automation

    Hello

    For a while I tried to figure out a problem I'm having with a script.

    I managed to write a script that does exactly what I want, which is to have Photoshop opens the selected files, and then apply the mask and finally save as .png

    The only problem I encounter is when Photoshop (CS 5.5) opens the selected number of files, it applies the script for the first file opened, while others remain unpublished...

    I expected to find help and or a solution for this problem.

    There must be a better way to do it, I need to make a white opaque overlay tones the silo'd 4 c/image (this is a window sticker). In the past I would duplicate the tif convert in grayscale, fill it black, double the placed tif, re-link to the new fit grayscale and color of the spot color. This works fine, but is there a way to simply duplicate the tif placed, remove the image and fill the path with a spot? TIA

  • How to insert photoshop image with a work/clipping path in illustrator using the path?

    How to place an image in Illustrator using the clipping/work path created in Photoshop?

    I have a .jpg of an object on a background image. This image has a clipping path that écrêtera the background of the image. I could clip the outside background (in Photoshop) and save the image as a file .psd with a transparent background, and then insert the .psd file in Illustrator... it's easy. What I can't understand is to place the image (bottom) .jpg and use clipping path Photoshop be clipping path in Illustrator. In this way, I can take this clipping path and use it as a layer of gloss spot for production. I work on a Macbook Pro and CC2014. Thank you.

    But you can export the path separately in Illustrator, then he get married to the JPEG placed as a clipping mask.

    In traces of Photoshop Panel, target the path, and then choose file > export > traces to Illustrator...

    He'll write a .ai file. Open and select all (it's a quick and easy way to 'see' the path because Photoshop it will export with no border or background, leaving mostly 'invisible' on the artboard Illustrator).

    Then you can copy it to the collage at the top of your JPEG placed. Position them as you like, select this option and the JPEG format, then choose object > clipping mask > make...
