  It is an option in the drop-down Panel. Uncheck the 'Add a mask by default'. No mask unless you have a selection active.

• How to create a clipping mask in photoshop touch?

  I want to be that lines with a photo showing through it, like a window to the text. I think I need to create a clipping mask. I can do it in photoshop touch? If so, how?

  Hi Sashakit,

  In Photoshop, you would definitely be able to use a clipping mask, you have the right idea. There is no function of masking in Photoshop Touch, but I found a way to get the same effect you!

  1. open the image you want to show through the text.

  

  2 choose the menu " more ' (& symbol) and choose the option text.

  

  3 type the word or the sentence and fix it where you would like to show through. Choice of black or white for the color is the easiest to see, but a lot no matter what color you choose.

  

  4 use the Magic Wand selection tool and do not forget to click on the additive . When you tap each letter, it will be a group of pieces for you chose the additive option.

  

  5 now that your letters are selected, make sure that you type on the bottom layer (with your photo). The selection must always remain active.

  

  6 choose the menu with the pencil icon and choose extract... This will delete everything outside your current selection.

  

  7 now you can delete the layer with the text on this subject or replace invisible to see your new picture!

  

  I hope this helps. See you soon!

• How to close a form image drawn to create a clipping mask?

  Hi friends,

  I hand - drew a skirt, took a picture of my design and trace the image to create a vector of my image.  I now use the clipping mask to fill my skirt with a pattern of drawing. See my skirt of drawing and model below.

  

  The only problem is that my drawing is not closed.  In the upper left corner of the skirt, there is this opening in the drawing (detail shot below).  What is the best way to bridge that gap, so I can use the image as a clipping mask?

  Thank you!

  

  Use the shapebuilder tool to fill the inside of the skirt with a color (any color)

  To close the gap, first double-click the tool in the tools Panel to enable detection of space.

  The colorful filling can be used as a clipping mask.

• Help to recreate the effect of shadow cast by the clipping mask

  Is there a few months, I created the image attached. Today, for the life of me I can not create a similar effect, where the shadow text source the clipping mask. Whenever I try to follow the same steps and the layer styles, that I get a normal black shadow not a shade that comes from the clipping mask as in my example. Help please I'm driving myself crazy!

  
  

  If you put the layer containing the shadow applied to a smart object the clipping mask will be applied to the shadow as well. Right click-> Convert to smart object

• Why don't this creates a clipping mask?

  Trying to take a file that I bought AND it hides in shape. Either she comes back she can't hide, or I get a white screen. If I select the form, I can see selected, but there is no fill.

  The problems (there are several) resident with bird drawing you want to use as a mask object. Select the bird and choose object > clipping mask > cancel clipping mask. Remove the white box that appears. Reselct the bird and choose object > compound path > release Compound Path.Go object > composite and make Compound path > select all, and then choose object > clipping mask > make clipping mask.

  That should do it.

• How to create an object full of objects without the clipping masks

  Hello!

  I wanted to ask that I saw a lot of vectors on fotolia and shutterstock like this

  

  It is a typical example. world map with diamond. As you can see that there is no clipping mask, but all objects are in the perfect location. It is any script or any plugin or a tip or some way to easily create for these works.

  Thanks for any help in advance.

  You need the world map

  Then object > mosaic to create objects.

  Ungroup

  Remove all the white squares

  Their color randomly (there are scripts to achieve this on Wundes.com)

  Then object > transform > transform each: rotate 45 °

  Once again object > transform > transform each: scale and select a "random".

  Select some of them and change fill and stroke

  Select them all and reduce the opacity

  Like this:

  

• Ive been trying for hours now, but illustrator wont allow me to create a clipping mask

  I created the spirit logo attached the pen tool. I then cut the Central Wick using the form generator tool.

  I imported it into a new document with an object/image that I want to hang it. I select the two go to object > clipping to mask.

  The two objects is suddenly off and I do not see the fill / no STROKE of the icons. If this does not happen then There nature and all just say "cannot make a clipping mask.

  This has been bothering me for a few days now.

  Anyone have any ideas?

  Thanks in advance.

  You can do so quite different or similar with masks of Cliping, without or with background color purple/note/smoke.

  Note: There was an error in the first proposal in post #18: in step 5) you must select C) (purple/note/smoke color background to cut of the) instead of d) (the underlying texture of parties drops black), sorry, I just spotted it.

  You can (reusing a part of the first proposal):

  (1) return to, or start from scratch, with the following basic elements (starting with this stacking order):

  (A) the compound path, forming the dripping inner circle party black (in A).

  (B) the compound path, forming the external parties dripping with black,

  (C) the color purple/note/smoke to cut background

  (D) the underlying texture parts of gout black,.

  (E) the underlying texture of letter parts internal;

  Select 2) A) and B) and copy both to the top of the stacking order, then release both Compound paths and remove the inner path from A) and the external path of B), then turn them into a new compound path, consisting of forms of internal letters (you can use Pathfinder > less first plan or object > compound path > make);

  (((3) E move) (the underlying texture of parts internal letter) up just below the new path composed of 2), select both and opposition > clipping mask > make, and then to hide;

  (Select 4 (A) (composite route forming the dripping inner circle in black (A)) and b the compound path forming the outer circle dripping parts black) and object > compound path > make;

  ((5) select the combination of 4) and D) (the underlying texture of parties drops black) and object > clipping mask > make.

  (Show 6) 3).

  (C) the note/violet/smoky colored backgroun, if keep you it, or any other background will be visible everywhere where it is not covered.

• Why the clipping masks are made for a Place/Embed?

  Illustrator CS6 (all updates)

  I have a simple and clean logo with a couple of transparent traces (letters like the 'e', 'A').  There is no clipping paths.  Everything works very well in this file, if I save it, re - open and edit, etc..

  If I have 'Place' or drag this file in a brand new, delete the file and then 'Embed' work, it creates 2 the size of the artboard clipping masks.  More importantly, it messes up the transparent traces so that I have to select them and use the shape mode "Unite" so that it can work properly.  I see this when trying to add a line to the letters... the race is broken until I use the button on the unit.  Even undo the compound path and redo it does not work.  In the image as an attachment, you can see how a place is broken, as well as the way in which 'inside' or 'outside' is available for embedded version.

  What gives?

  Thank you

  Eric

  

  When you drag a. HAVE file and drop it onto an open. File to HAVE in Illustrator, which is equivalent to the file > Place, he became a partner. You cannot change the contents of the files linked directly because they are supposed to be changed out and update when changed. Thus, Illustrator uses the means to isolate the linked file to edit its content and provide a means for the linking functionality. These resources are provided by 'create a file PDF Compatible file' option when you save the. File to HAVE it. If you save a. File without this option and try to use it as a link, you will get this weird text instead. With this option checked, you will be able to use the file as a link in another. File to HAVE it.  Also keep in mind that if you embed a linked file it will equal not copying a file open. Coating can change the objects of no basic appearance. For example if the linked file has envelope distort, points will result in the expansion of the envelope that will produce a clipping mask group.

• Create a clipping mask and insert multiple Images, forms, blending options

  I am able to do this in Illustrator, but I try to understand how to do this in InDesign.

  In InDesign - after I created a custom shape (clipping mask) with the pen tool I drop an image inside the shape (CMD + D).
  However, I would like to add other forms or images in this clipping mask and set the blending options. How does this in InDesign?

  Thank you!

  1. Draw or make the mask of future cliping as frame
  2. All put together that you want to be in this context.
  3. Group them
  4. Move them to the location you want them finally
  5. Cut them into your editing table
  6. Select the target image
  7. Change > passed in

• Release all the clipping masks?

  Hello world... Please help me!

  I am regularly required to work with former PDFs for my business, I have to open in Illustrator to amend and update (we don't have access to original of .ai files).

  Every time I started working on these files I have to spend ages just unconnecting the elements of the work, usually by right-clicking and choosing "release clipping mask.

  Is it possible to simply unplug everything when you open an old document pdf in Illustrator?

  First, set your filling and stroking the two votes to zero. Make sure that all the layers, and the art is unlocked. Then go to Select > same > background & contour. Clipping masks usually do not have a fill and stroke, so this should select all. Then you can simply press the delete key to remove and release everything.

• I can't access my layers after the opacity mask is applied.

  I'm using Adobe Illustrator CS6

  When I apply an opacity mask to one of my layers. It changes the Panel layers in a way that I can't access long one of my other layers, only the mask of opcacity layer shows up.

  I am able to access my other layers at any time?

  Thanks for your time.

  When you create an opacity mask, you are placed in the mask editing mode. It's sort of a sudo isolation mode that allows editing targeted object mask (s). You will need to click on the thumbnail of the object (highlighted in red in the image below) to go back to edit the actual objects in the file.

  

• How to create the layer mask using ellipse (circle) to show the face of the watch only?

  just stuck - see how to get a job of layer mask using a brush, but can not get by with the help of an ellipse

  What I'm after is:

  * Start simple watch, with the face and band by photo

  * want to apply a layer, so the only thing I see the circular face of the watch (no tape etc.) and that the base is clear (alpha)

  May I ask what are the instructions step by step to achieve this goal by using layer masks & ellipse tool?  (i.e. not having to manually paint around the dial)

  Here's the original image:
  

  1. Make a copy of the background and work on this copy of background layer.
  2. Use the elliptical selection tool, hold down the SHIFT key to draw a circular selection:
     
  3. Select use (on the menu bar)... Transform the selection to move the selection, and drag the sides of the selection at the edges of the dial:
     
  4. After you click the green check mark, use the selection... Inverse to select all items except the dial of the watch and press your delete key to remove such things:
     
  5. Your layers look like this:
     

  Alternatively, if you want to use a mask, after step #3 hit the icon 'Mask' at the bottom of the Palette layers to create a mask layer automatically by using the selection:
