Making smart objects in items 14

Is it possible to make a layer into a smart object so that no matter how I change (distortion, graduation etc) it does not change the quality of the image?

Interesting question...

You can retrieve features "smart objects" with the elements Add on affordable +:

The default whan you drag another picture opened in the photobin in your working file is to create a smart layer.

If your layer already has been simplified and modified,

I think the following workflow might do what you want.

-make the source layer the one selected in the layers palette (Alt click on the eye)

-File / duplicate

-back to the original file and display all layers

-from the photobin, drag the new copy to the original file, it will appear as a smart layer.

  • Photoshop: Edit a linked smart object in Illustrator

    I've created a few vector shapes and text in Illustrator and paste in Photoshop as a vector object smart. I re - uses these elements, so I the converted to a linked smart object. Awesome.

It is possible to manually edit the linked file by double-clicking it in the Finder and selecting open in Illustrator. It is possible but not very effective.

    Yes, it removes only the ability. To be able to do what you want, you must integrate the smart AI object in your file. It is inefficient.

  • Camera Raw open as smart object is not re-opening Camera Raw on double click!

    I can't get the Camera Raw dialog to reappear after I open an image as a smart object in Photoshop.

    Note that I'm opening Photoshop CS6, no bridge or Lightroom. I use Open as... (Shift-Ctrl-Alt-O), then select Camera Raw in the file Type drop-down list to open a standard PSD file. It happens in the Camera Raw dialog box. After that making edits (and savings as a preset) I SHIFT-click on the CR Open button to change to Open ACE Object.

    It happens in Photoshop with the changes. The thumbnail of the layer shows the small icon of the smart object to this topic. But when I double-click on top the dialogue came not from Camera Raw. Instead, Photoshop opens what appears to be a copy built of the original image with no editing. It carries the extension .psd, not the usual .psb extension. In addition, any changes to this document and save it has bizarre results on the original image.

    I swear to you that I managed to do work once earlier today, but now he does this again and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I thought that maybe that's a small problem, but rebooting did not help.

    Thanks if you can understand this a ton!

    Since I realized this file to open a JPG or PNG (and probably a RAW) as Camera Raw works very well. In other words, I can edit in Camera Raw, and then shift-click to Open the Object and the smart object works fine in Photoshop. It's only when I try to open a PSD file type by using the file > open as... (File type: Camera Raw) I get the weird behavior when I opened CR mods as a smart object. Someone know why it works with a JPG or PNG format, but does not work with a PSD file?

    AFTER THAT I have the JPG or PNG opened as a smart object, I can then save it as a PSD and smart objects work fine.

  • The Vector Smart Objects open in Illustrator

    This was good work but after recently update to Photoshop the connection "Photoshop > Illustrator" together seem to be broken. Whenever I try to double-click a vector smart object in the layers panel, I get this (instead of automatically open in Illustrator as before):

  • Vector Illustrator to Photoshop Smart objects is more editable...?

    I've just updated my CC and experiencing some weird behaviors between Illustrator and Photoshop. I always start in Illustrator to make my designs (logos, etc. for the vector art) and then build in Photoshop for brochures and other media. I always copied and pasted as smart objects (from Illustrator into Photoshop) and production wise, this is a quick easy workflow - I can go back and change my smart objects by clicking twice if necessary changes.

    However, after update CC two days ago, I feel something I've never seen. When I paste the graphic Illustrator (such as a smart object) I can no longer double-click the layer to edit in Illustrator - I am panic and need help! What they have done or what has changed? It's ruining my workflow and I would really appreciate the help. The alert script error I get when I double click on the vector smart object is "this element is not directly editable in photoshop, but it can be placed in a document. To move the item, drag it into an open document. "Why I'm doing this and why they would change?

    Help, please

    The interest to place the vector in Photoshop is not hunting for the dynamic object - it is much too long and then go back to Illustrator. It is a step in the wrong direction, and I can't believe that others are not upset. I would not have updated if I had known this - now my production is at a standstill immensely. Is there a way to express my concerns?

    Your first message is at odds with your last. You said in your first post that you double-click to edit a vector pasted in Photoshop into Illustrator. Then you say you want to go back to Illustrator and "hunt for the object."

    As long as you have the option "add to my current library" unchecked when pasting, it should work as before. Is there something I'm missing here?

  • How can I change the speed of a video clip after which makes a smart object?

    In order to apply the same Camera Raw filter for each segment of a clip that I was going to split several times, I have converted the full clip to a smart object, applied my settings Camera Raw filter and then split the clip and remove parts.  Now, I want to do some parts of these clips slowed, but even if I right click on the right side of the layer and select 'Clear Smart Filters', all I see when I right click on the item in the Assembly are query options; I can change is no longer the speed or the audio.  Is it possible to do without having to make all cuts at first, change the speed and audio and then having to go back and convert each individual segment in a smart object and then apply the same filter of ACR for each of them?

    Once you have converted a video clip to a smart object, it is more technically a video clip. All dynamic objects are treated equally, regardless of their content. So, just as you cannot change the read speed of a smart object non-video, you can do it for a dynamic object that contains the video. But if you double-click the thumbnail to a smart object layer, you open the embedded file and you can apply settings to this file-centric video.

  • Thumbnail of the smart object not to launch Illustrator

    Hi guys,.

    I have noticed what seems to be a bug on my PC, when you use CreativeCloud. "When I double click on the thumbnail of the smart object in Photoshop instead of him launch Illustrator (the place of the dynamic object was created), Photoshop displays a window titled" PDF "Import '." " The process of making works perfectly on my Macbook, but on my PC, it appear this error.

    My process is: Illustrator open > creative vector > copy Vector > paste into Photoshop > paste it as a smart object > find layer > Double click on thumbnail of the smart object... After this step, it will normally begin Illustrator but it currently opens the 'import PDF' UI, which then opens the file in Photoshop as a file rasterised.

    Any of you have a fix for it?

    Thank you

    Warren

    It seems that the operating system does not associate with Illustrator .ai files correctly.

    You will need to set the OS for files association I launch Illustrator.

  • How to use smart objects to make models?

    Hey guys,.

    I was download a few models to use in my wallet and I want to start making my own for some I can not find on the web. I managed to do an asset realistic looking for what I want, but I don't know how to add text and other things. Usually, when I open a downloaded PSD mockup I double-click on the smart object, edit the content, press on save and BOOM it is perspective for whatever I change.

    However, I made dynamic object and I am trying to edit the content, so when I double click it just opens the new and all purpose that I created ad, but it does not save the prospect. If that makes sense... (see the screenshots)

    So my question is,

    How to make a dynamic object to change the content (text, images, logo, etc. etc.) on a plain PSB and PSD so it registers in the corner or point of view I want? Is there something different that I do. Can we make a step by step guide?

    It's my design until I double click on the smart layer

    Here is the image when I double click on the active layer (not exactly what I want).

    Here's a mockup I downloaded when I double click on the next show pictures of what I want.

    Screen Shot 2013-10-11 at 3.13.50 PM.png

    That's what I want to do in my design of the original, but how do I get the text to do it with a smart object? I want to change the text in my design and apply (not necessarily this design, but my own) to my dynamic object (first image), I created in photoshop. How can I do this?

    Screen Shot 2013-10-11 at 3.14.11 PM.png

    Make the text of the same size or larger and put it into a smart object: filter > convert to smart object.  Without it, you can turn the text, but you do not have as many transform options.  Once you have the text in the dynamic object, select Edition > transform > warp.  Then you can drag the corner of the text points to fit the shape of the card.

  • Vector smart object is rendered wrong.

    Has anyone cross a problem when pasting of the complex vector smart objects in Photoshop CC?

    I created a form in Illustrator CC, it adds an extrude and bevel effect and then pasted as a smart object in Photoshop CC. The first example of what it looks like in Illustrator CC, the second is that it sticks like in Photoshop CC.
    As you can see, it's making it very difficult and totally unusable as a smart object.

    before_after.jpg

    I've recently updated to CC, and it never happened in CS5. Is there a new CC preference that can reproduce the vector objects? Maybe something I cut by accident?

    Thank you

    Mike

    Photoshop is made just as Illustrator in the PDF or EPS file.

    And the rendering quality has greatly improved since CS5.

    But Photoshop can use Illustrator puts in the PDF or EPS file (written Illustrator it's own private data of institutions - which is what it works with for editing).

  • RE: Camera Raw and smart objects

    Hello everyone.

    I have a question please.

    Inside of the 8.1 camera raw workflow options, I checked the box to open in Photoshop as smart objects.

    I noticed inside the Camera Raw, open the Image box to turn to, the open object box.  I clicked open, and he opened the Image as objects inside Photoshop the Smart.

    If I make changes to the Image, and if I Double click on the smart object, it will open in Camera Raw again which is good.

    I also noticed that if I make changes to the Image inside the Raw to the dynamic object camera after clicking Open Smart Objects I see the changes inside the Photoshop too.

    But if I make the changes to the Image inside the Photoshop, and later I Double click on the Image, the Image opens inside the Camera Raw, without modification.

    Here's my question: still The Smart object Image is a Raw Image?

    My next question is:

    I don't know if I open a Raw Image Inside the Camera Raw and if I click on fact, the image is always a Raw Image, which is good, and if I click on Reset low, will reset back. If I change only the White Balance and click on go back the Camera Raw and I chose as shot, the Image goes back to the Original Raw file.

    But if I do other changes such as exposure, any color change and click on I did can never return to the original...

    Last month I was in collaboration with the Lightroom and I noticed if I open a raw image inside the Lightroom and modifications to make the Image, any time I can click on reset and the Raw image dates back to its origin.

    I don't think that we can do this with Camera Raw can us?

    Claire removes the settings in camera raw completely. You will not see the setting on the thumbnail icon in Bridge

    By default Camera Raw will display the icon and double click on the thumbnail will always open in Camera Raw with the default settings.  The default value is "As Shot", that's why you see no difference. It is when you select a default Custom you want. He will stay with the Camera Raw file.

    See this article by Julienne Kost.

    http://blogs.Adobe.com/jkost/2009/10/setting_new_camera_raw_default.html

    Another difference is with JPEGs. Open a JPEG in ACR, making an adjustment, click 'done '.  Select 'Default Camera Raw' and it will always open in ACR instead of Photoshop.  Select 'Clear' and it's a normal jpeg which is still open in Photoshop.

    Basically it's all I know, I normally don't use ACR much.

    You can paste the items copied from Illustrator into Photoshop as smart objects - just choose this option.

    Magneticbear: When you place your object in Photoshop, you have the Antialias checked (in the options bar) before commit you the transformation?  Without it, you would get the result of type you specify.

  • Action to replace the contents of a smart object

    I use CS5/PS to create a collage created multiple images (smart object layers) that I've positioned using clipping masks.

    I would like to be able to replace the content of the images, which I can do via layer > smart objects > replace contents..., but I would like to have an action for a process of 'one-click' instead of three clicks.  Problem is, when I try to record the action, it forces me to complete replacement, and then the action gets wired to replace the image used in the 'record' action and therefore does not allow me to select which image I'd like to use.

    This feature is available in PS Elements, so I think it's possible.  I don't know that miss me something pretty basic, I do not know what!

    Thanks in advance,

  • How to change a smart object

    I don't know how I go on this point, but I had the text in Word and pasted in a gray background in PS CC. Now, I have a smart object. Look great, but I forgot to add a period. I did some research on google, and he says to choose layer, change the dynamic object (or double-click on the thumb).

    But then, he brings the text in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (is part of the suite CC?), never seen before.

    I can select some text there, but the keyboard does not work to remove or add anything. I'm stuck. Thank you.

    It would be more simple paste the text again. You cannot change the text in Acrobat Reader

    Copy the text from the Word document. Create a new text layer in Photoshop by clicking anywhere on the document with the text tool.

    Then stick.

    The text should now be editable on a new layer. This layer is not a smart object, but you can make it if you want by layer > smart objects > convert to smart object.

  • What is the best way to manipulate the shape of a layer to smart object in Photoshop?

    I have a smart object in photoshop which is a rectangle, and I want to deform slightly so it looks it was filed on the ground (basically, I need to change the position of the corners to make it look in perspective).

    If I did that to an object in Illustrator I was going to just use the direct Selection tool and drag the anchor points in the corners of the rectangle. I know there is a direct selection tool in Photoshop, but my smart object doesn't seem to have all the anchor points on it to manipulate (v. new Photoshop user, sorry).

    I know you can use a mesh of string objects, but as this is just a simple rectangle I was hoping that it would be a less complicated way? That it's just the positioning of the corners that must fit.

    Thanks for the tips!

    Alanna

    Alanna salvation,

    You can use Edition > free transform or Ctry/Cmd-T, to reshap the smart object.
