Permutation of shape with precomps layers

Is there a way to Exchange layers with a demo form? When I try to option-do drag, I get an error, 'layer has no source.  I could comp before each shape layer and then discuss.

It is, I have hundreds of shape layers that must be replaced. You will need to I really comp before each shape layer?

A shape, such as a text layer layer, is not a piece of images displayed in the project window, so the trick of opt-drag does not work.

  • You can color in a shape with the Brush tool?

    I created a simple circle and want to color a predefined brush I have.

    I know that you can use the shape dynamics and layers to change the stroke color and fill color. I don't want a fill, but rather that I brush, shadow areas, so it looks like I used a pencil on paper.

    I also know that I can do this manually, making sure not not to "color outside the lines" and then delete anything outside the lines that I can wear a color by mistake.

    However, I have many of these objects to the color and want the freedom to move my brush beyond the edge of the circle, coloring and shading quickly with my predefined brush.

    Is it possible to use a predefined brush, color of a shape, but not the coloring to go outside of the boundaries of the shape you created?

    1 fools the shape layer (Cmd + J)

    2 layer > rasterize > shape

    3 wand. Select the inside of the circle.

    4. Select > Inverse and then delete. This will give you some ants running on the raster layer

    5. Select > Inverse so that the Interior of the circle is the live area

    6. brush and your work will stay in the circle

    An additional Tip:

    At this point before you deselect the moving dotted line, choose the command selection > Save selection. In the future, if you choose to modify the brush in the circle you can remind the mobile dotted with Select > load selection before working on the raster layer

  • Printing pages with additional layers - page by page

    Already posted this in the pre-press section:

    Printing pages with additional layers - page by page (DUPLICATE)

    But maybe the pros of Javascript are faster by giving a useful answer:

    Hello, need us a script to get a print of a document of two layers.
    The layer 'A' is a base layer, 'B' can be activated by clicking on a button on the layer "A" and gives additional information.
    The layers ('A' and 'B') which should appear in the following order: A1, A2, B1, B2... n1, n2


    Weather printing should be established in this way for the regular print command or can be implemented by a button.
    There is no limitation for that in the document.

    Hope I gave a clear statement on the challenge.  Thanks in advance.

    If you want to print each page twice, layer display and then layer B every time?

    In this case, you can use something like this (but the user may need to manually click the button print every time...):

  • Excess of text with multiple layers

    I'm creating a bilingual brochure in InDesign with three layers; German, English and a layer of the image. German and English layers consist only of text boxes. When you view the document in InDesign with each of the three visible layers, some text boxes are the two texts are each on the others and others that one of the text boxes, then the other zone of the other layer text either invisible or packed off the page. This means that when I export it as a PDF file, certain parts of one of the layers of language do not exist. InDesign was told in these places, I have overset text I need to fix. I need the text to inflict on one another, however, so that the two versions are the same.

    Is could someone please tell me what I could do here? I would be very grateful for any help.

    Thank you

    I guess, there is dressing applied on some of the blocks of text.
    Turn off wrapping of text for all text frames and that there should be no problem to export in PDF format with all the layers and objects remain in place.

    Kind regards

  • How to stack another canvas to shape with another shape

    I'm having a hard time understand the above statement.  Are all the paintings that you want to display the part of the same binary form (.fmb)?  If the first three paintings are in a binary form and the two you mention above, are in a separate binary form then you can not display the second shape is if it is part of the first shape because the canvas object window is displayed in does not exist in the first form.  You could try to make your new form as it belongs to the first, but it will be tricky.  You must call the second form by using the built-in Call_Form() so that the first shape is still visible.  Then you can play with the properties of the window in form 2 to make it look less to a new window.  Are the properties of the window you can play with: bevel = none, the Style of window = Document, move allowed = No, resize allowed = No, maximize allowed = No, reduce to the minimum allowed = No, etc..

    I don't know if this will give you what you want, but it could come close...

  • Slow with many layers of Photoshop

    Hello!

    I do experience notable in Photoshop slowdowns when working with large files (more than 4000 x 4000 pixels) with many layers.
    I tried different things, like tinkering with performance options in Photoshop, brush settings and global PC settings.
    Nothing seems to help.

    When you start with a new file (say 4000 x 4000 pixels), everything seems fine. As I work, I create layers more. When the number of layer approaches 80 ~ 100 I start noticing significant slowdowns. The Brush tool becomes lag (delay adds boring), zooming and paning is smoother and everything becomes overall slower.

    When checking in the Manager of tasks, either the graphics card or RAM or processor is fully utilized. Total CPU usage is usually only 20 ~ 25%, 50% of RAM but Photoshop is lagging as hell.

    I think I have a quite decent PC. (at least for this type of workload..)
    My PC current specifications are:

    CPU: i7 6700 k @ 4, 0GHz
    RAM: DDR4, 16GB, 3000 Mhz
    GPU: GTX 980 Ti
    2xSSD RAID-0 for the main system partition (Photoshop "scratch disks" can also be programmed to do this).
    Windows 10


    So, what could be the problem? Any ideas I could try?
    Or should I rethink my working habits of several layers?

    Update!
    After more inexperienced, seems to have finally found the culprit that is causing slowdowns.
    Layer blending Options. Especially those that generate their own semi-transparent area.

    I can reproduce this in the layer file 10:
    (1) create a new file with the dimensions of the 6000 x 6000 pixels (or something bigger) with no background
    (2) draw something
    (3) add option 'outer glow' merger with significant RADIUS
    (4) add a few more layers, repeat steps 2 and 3
    (5) create new layer below all other layers and try to get something in the area where overlap the effects of "outer glow".

    So the main takeaway:
    Be careful adding mixture of options to layers and rasterization them where possible.

  • How to put an external glow on a shape with no fill effect?

    Hey everybody.


    I need to have form stoke No Fill/No with the outer glow effect. I tried but all in vain. I fill the shape with white and then put multiply, but this multiple effect, making the two invisible. When I go into the layer and change the fill multiply then the outer glow seeps into the form, and it's not what I want.


    My form is a form of lotus/Crown. Screenshot attached.

    I need to this 1 highlighted the form striking the outer glow that is present on the 2nd form but with no fill.Screenshot.png

    Kindly help me out here. As I had struggled with this problem for over a week now, to start from forum to forum and tutorial tutorial but without success.

    Thank you.


    make your object with two fillings in the appearance palette.

    give the upper fill opacity to 0%.

    Apply an outer glow for the background fill.

    Select the object in the appearance palette (i.e. the entire object is selected, not one of its individual fillings).

    in the transparency palette, check the piercing group.

  • A shape with a solid color fill

    How you fill a shape with a solid color so that the color is confined inside the border/boundary of the shape and does not bleed outdoors, giving shape edges rough after filling?

    I was checking the custom shape fill option which is present after you select the custom shape tool. If I use a new fill layer, the whole layer gets filled. Select the custom shape with choppy edges so quick Selection tool results. And nothing happens when I convert the custom dynamic object shape. I thought it would help, but it did not. I really need help. Also, I want to fill the shape with black. Thanks for your help.

  • Import Illustrator file with several layers and sublayers as composition by keeping all layers and sous-calques

    I drew a map of the country with several layers and sous-calques, including the streets, cities, railroads...

    Now, I want to create a template for my colleagues in After Effects.

    To do this, I want to import the AI in After Effects, holding all sublayers and layers in compositions and subcompositions.

    When I do, I get the first two layers correctly, others just in a merged publication.

    What can I do to get all the layers of each as a layer in After Effects?

    Best regards, Raphael

    Illustrator imports only the first level of the layers. If you have groups or paths below you must release layer groups. The layers will then be stacked in the order in the form of layers. Then you need to move them to the top.

    The procedure is to select a layer in the layer Illustrator Panel, then without selecting any which specific element in the layer click on the menu in the upper right corner and select release to layers. All an elements in this layer will be transformed into layers. Now, select all, and drag them to the top above the original layer. This will leave the empty original layer and put all the elements in new layers.

    Here is a tutorial I made there are a bunch of years and who uses this technique to transform a mixture in a morphing.

  • Please help, I want to replace a shape with an image. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.

    I watched a video of a guy this step by step and I still can't make it work.

    What I want to do is to replace a shape with an image. I guess the way to do is to make the image of the background color of the form, if you want to. On the element of the scene, I click on "creationcomplete", and then type the following code:

    ($(sym.lookupselector("BIG_RIGHT_BOX")).css('background-image','url(images/Karma.jpg)');

    I put the photo (karma.jpg) in the project, and I can see it in the "images" tab

    You are very close - just a few things:

    1. No need to lookupselector - in Animate, use sym. $)
    2. The url itself should also be nested quotes

    Then try this:

    SYM.$("BIG_RIGHT_BOX"). CSS ('background-image', 'url("images/Karma.jpg")');

    That should do it...
