Problem with the pen tools & brush

Hello

I went to this throughout the day. I have reset the preferences and reinstalled but it did not help.

I select the pen tool or the brush, set the size of the brush let 16pt, choose a default width profile and define the brush as a base. As I draw the line/mark the anchor settings are reset to 1 pt, normal width profile and sometimes oval 2pt. I can again select the line and apply the settings, and then I click on board graphic settings remain and if I try to draw a new line settings are reset again.

I use cs5 on mac.

Any ideas?

What I'm asking is how to circumvent illustration changing the brush base with width to an oval brush profile when trying to make a stroke.

I don't know how much more clear I can be when saying ""you can not. " "

    You can use the Ctrl key and then click with the regular selection tool, clicking with ctrl will make a new keyframe. in this way, have no need for the tools. CTRL has other great shortcuts that will stop you having to spend retouching pads tools too.

    If the automation keyframe line is missing, you can switch on and off in the menu sequence.

    Bubble icons are the widgets corner. You can drag inward to round the corner. They are not part of your problem. If you want to hide them, select view > hide corner Widget. I have a hotkey defined for this menu item.

    If you see multiple bullseyes, you may have your set with the shape selected, that would prevent you from being able to move individual anchor points. Deselect the shape first, and then move the anchor with the direct Selection tool.

  • Beginner with the pen tool problem: not obvious on any shape layer

    I'm learning the pen tool. I made a line with the pen tool, but now I can't find out what layer it is on, and I can't caress as I wanted. All my layers are turned off and the form appears. However the research through the layers there is no vector layer that contains my line. In addition, I can't touch the line as the line options and filling are greyed out on my table of paths. I have attached a copy of Θcran to explain if all goes well I mean. I use CS2 on Windows 7.

    Your Layer palette capture you have no visible layer and targeted in order to trace the path would not be available and gray by Photoshop.  Target a layer visible and you should be able to stroke the path on this layer. Also, you should be able to add a shape layer by using this path of pen.

  • 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.

  • Draw freehand with the pen tool

    Hi guys,.

    I'm quite new in illustrator and my question is: I can't do on the fly of drawing with the pen tool.  When I click on the pen tool, it comes with little x sign beside him.  Is it not possible drawing freehand with the pen tool?  If so, how can I remove this pen cursor x?

    Thank you very much

    Try the pencil or brush tools. They allow freehand drawings. The pen tool is really reserved for Bézier drawing.

  • Sharp point with the pen tool

    I make a mask with the pen tool, but I can't understand how to connect 'pointed' to a curved line; I know how do either straight lines or curves, but how to connect to sharp curves?

    Hold down the CTRL key when you move the Bezier handle.  This it break so you can get the acute angles.  The acute angles of Dave however cannot be broken... hehe.  Dave just joke.

  • Problem with the local adjustment brush

    Problem with the local adjustment brush:

    Tire of a photo with the iso 6400 to a person and I wanted to increase the exposure of the face only. So I set the exposure compensation of at least 4 local adjustment brush, in order to see where I paint. In earlier versions of lighroom I got a smoth black area. My intention was, and then adjust the brightness to + 0.33 in order to get a slightly lighter face. But I have no black smoth area. Instead, I largely perforated black area. After setting the exposure to + 0.33, the face was indeed more light, but with many large tasks very ugly.

    The brush settings:

    Fat / size was 7.1.

    Weiche Kaiser / smoth edge was 50.

    River / stream was 60.

    Dichte / density was 100.

    Automask has been verified.

    Any ideas?

    Maybe it's because you have "Auto mask" checked the.  Uncheck the box before painting to see if that helps.

  • 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.

    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.  :-(

    Or you can choose the pen tool (g), set the padding to zero and the race to what you want, then draw a path, then press U twice to reveal all of the properties that have been changed for the layer, and then click Add (top-right) and select Connect the tracks.

    To make the race work just animate the start or end point and sent to paint on original or reveal original or normal.

  • Cannot change a video Clip with the pen tool

    Hello

    I imported video and audio clips to the first, but I can't edit video clips with the pen tool. No line appears on the clip in the timeline panel. However, the audio clips are great and I can use the tool pen on those. Why no line does not appear on the video clips? How to make it stand?

    Hey Lee,

    do not understand what you mean. On video clips in the past the line seems just when I put the video files in the timeline. I don't see them now, how can I get this line back so that I can manually disappear with the pen tool?

    With the extended track, go into the settings menu to display timeline (the key) and select "See the video keyframe."

    I hope this helps.

    Thank you
