Please help me! I'm fighting with the NET tool!

So I want to make this Chair as it does in the picture, but I can't! There is a chapter in my book to Illustrator CS3 explaining how to use the gradient mesh and mesh tool, but it does not at all help me. I am naïve.   The tutorial explains I can create points in the mesh just by clicking on the tool of mesh within an object, but when I try to do, the pointer is "blocked". I can only add additional points on the lines or edges, but not on an empty space in an object. What gives? Why is that what others can do only one I can't? Forgive me if I seem a little too upset, but I've been struggling with this days and I can't find an answer.

In this tutorial here: http://www.layersmagazine.com/Illustrator-gradient-mesh-tool.html the guy just clicks in the empty spaces, creating intersections. In my case, that's impossible.

PS: Please look an attached file and tell me what would be the best way to go on this Chair to colouring. Maybe I'm doing this completely wrong? (I only started learning illustrator about 5 weeks ago)

Sorry for the background model is of poor quality, but this has been taken from a book and scanned, so it's the best I could do.

It seems that it has the object selected by the path only and perhaps an or tow other settings to go with that as the edges to hide or hide the rectangle enclosing.

The film is directed with Snapz Pro.

    Hello

    Is it easy to fix the Li-ion battery. My batt shows that it is fully charged but when I disconnect it works only 10 min. (xp shows about 70%) and suddenly xp shows that it is unloaded.
    I have Toshiba M30 Centrino is battery model: PA3331U-1BRS

    Hello

    It would be very interesting to know how old is your laptop and the battery.
    Have you removed the battery while the laptop was used with power supply?
    As far as I know it s not optimize for the life of the battery if it is still attached to the unit. If you have used your device with the AC adapter / CC, the battery should still removed the laptop. Please read the operating instructions how to handle the battery.

    Good bye

  • Help! I'm fighting with the help of Kuler

    I downloaded kuler swatches and I can't use them.  I use CS2 and guess that I would be able to open them in photoshop.  In fact, when I double click on them, they do not open anywhere.

    Some advice for me?

    Thank you very much!

    Angie

    I assume that you have downloaded a. ASE file, correct? To load these swatches in Photoshop, you can do the following:

    1. launch Photoshop

    2. open the swatches Panel

    3. in the context menu of the swatches Panel, choose Load swatches.

    4. choose him. ASE file that you uploaded to Kuler.

  • Help please with the pen tool! :)

    I'm trying to draw a building with the pen tool.

    I want that every surface (form?) to a new layer, but I want to use the angle of the previous shape to start and complete the new form so that they are distinct, but join perfectly.

    I tried to use the transform tool to create forms I need and align them next to another form, but I don't know how

    to make 'snap' to the shape on the other layer.

    I use Photoshop CC.

    I was trying to search online, but finding this difficult issue of Word correctly in google to be honest.

    Thanks in advance! I hope this makes sense.

    Ted

    tedats wrote:

    I must say I want the forms remain separated.

    Yes, they would be all on separate layers.  You would use only part of the last shape to start the next to ensure perfect alignment.

    Illustrator is a nod to the Point.  It always annoyed me that Photoshop does not handle the snap with the pen or free transform tool.  :-(

    Need help to open two images with the same file with different exposures on the screen at the same time in the Photoshop creative cloud (in previous versions we could open two images of the same nef (raw) file and then combine them on the screen with the move tool. They have become a composite of two layers which could be developed further with the mask tool.

    Help, I have a problem with the PS and CC - I get and error measure in PS - "this program cannot start because ONCoreFoundation8.dll - is missing... and it crashes, and now creative cloud will not be open to all."  I spent more than 2 hours to speak to someone in tech support that I did not understand, and I don't know what to do next. The tech gal was run, but once she hung up he returned to broken.  I have an idea, but that's just a guess - trouble started about the time I tried to open On1 of ps there has been a perfect icon effects 9 (for some reason, they decided to add the icon when I got it - I have 8) I clicked it and it loaded the update and then asked me if I wanted to try or buy - that's when I realized that I should have clicked on 8 and tried of back , but is either too late - I think, maybe this dll. 8 or 9 in with perfect On1 effects - and it has changed my settings in PS - and is the reason why it is not compatible - ideas?

  • Desperately need help with the Flash tool bone

    Hello, I recently started to animate with flash and I have a very annoying problem with the BONE tool. I can't apply the bone to Jpeg etc. I import my images for flash and have tried to make the symbols etc., the only thing that worked it is breaking apart. Then when I use the BONE tool it cuts the image on the screen

    Trying to animate his arm, no luck. Is there something im missing?

    If it's important, specifications and software:

    Adobe Master Collection CS5.5 commercial version

    I7 2600 k 3.7 Ghz

    16 GB RAM DDR3

    Config Raid 6 to HARD drive

    GTX 580 x 2

    Thanks in advance, Karl

    No, he just put in place and make sure that test the various movements of the arm before you start to create poses for the frame. If you take a look at the example file (using clips), you will see that the symbol is slightly overlap at the level of the joint and the transformation point is also at the level of the joint. If you want your figure to change when you move it then your image must not be bitmap and vector.

  • With the Selection tool over new layer but becomes "the selected area is empty."

    I have been working on an image in PS and I have a number of layers.  First of all, several adjustment layers.  Then I do various clean ups (especially with the cloning tool).  I make a selection and then create a new layer.  I'm on one of the layers again, I made a selection to move a part of the image, hit command-J but this time I get the error message: "could not make a new layer from the selection because the selection is empty.  I understand the error but what would you suggest to go ahead?

    Hi adobe community.

    I am using the trial version of adobe after effects, but I have one or two big problems with the software:

    2. it is impossible download this plugin: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe after effects CC 2015\Support (Media Core plug-ins)\Common\ImporterWindowsMedia.apm Files\

    Please help me and thanks a lot for the tips

    p.s. I have a pc with windows 10 pro

    Try CC 2014 and see if the problem persists.

    Try CC 2014 will help us see if the problem is in the latest version of AE or on your system in General.

    I have problems with the puppet tool on my Windows 7 CC 2015 machine running.

    If there is a problem with CC 2015, use CC 2014 for a little while. There is a coming update at the end of this month which aims to fix a LOT of bugs.

  • Masking with the pen tool creates unwanted cropping

    Adobe Premiere Pro CC - 2015.4 version 10.4.0 (30) build

    Operating system - OS X 10.11.6

    Sequence/images - images of reflex digital H.264 in a 1920 x 1080, 16:9, 29.97 FPS

    I'm adding a chart and try to hide a file HAVE with the pen tool. As soon as I click on the tool pen under the control of opacity effect, a small portion of the image is cropped on the right side. Even when I finished the mask, he trims still on the right side.

    Here is what the chart looks like no mask at all. http://i.imgur.com/CtKbvOD.PNG

    Once I click on the tool to start feather mask, it cultures immediately a small part on the right side. http://i.imgur.com/W5ICaJR.PNG

    Even when I change the mask to make sure the mask is not touching the graphic, it cultures still a small portion. http://i.imgur.com/zNTGQ60.PNG

    Here's a short video showing what I want my mask to do (with keyframes) and you can still see the cropped part. https://youtu.be/Sy-Fx4YUc1g

    I restarted the program, re-import the file, delete the chart out my calendar and it added on. Remove the mask and tried again.

    I am at a loss here, but feel like there is something simple that I'm missing. Did anyone had this problem? Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thanks for your help.

    Is the file have identical to the sequence value.

    How the mask behaves if material MPE turned to the software.
