• Resize the photo but not the vector mask?

  If I use a vector for a picture of drawing as a mask, can I then change the picture and hide individually?

  There is a point in the center of the photo which allows me to move the mask, but how can I resize the photo without resizing the mask and resize the mask without resizing the photo?

  Thank you

  Hold down the Alt/Option + click this point blue Center to move/adjust the mask without worrying if the thumbnail of the layer is active.

  Regarding resizing regardless of them, I'm not aware of all the shortcuts except for:

  Decouple (click/enable/disable the link between the thumbnail of the layer and the mask thumbnail)

  Select the thumbnail of the mask.

  Change the values (W/H) in the PI. (You can also do the same thing here for the active layer thumbnail)

  Here is a tip that I use a lot of the time:

  Use AutoShapes like masks. It is those who have points in the canvas "controller" that allow to resize, change the angles etc.

  Example:

  A. open/import an image file.

  B. Edit > cut the image/bitmap to the Clipboard.

  C. adding a Rectangle object rounded on the Web and have it active before moving on to the next step.

  D. Edit > paste inside the contents of the Clipboard (the image).

  The result is your image with the a vector mask was consistent with the auto shape (in this case, the rounded Rectangle).

  That's the problem - select the vector mask thumbnail and you will see again "anchor controllers" there: resize and corner radius.

• Change the path inside and outside areas in the vector mask

  Hey all lovers of the PS/CS,.

  This is probably an easy, yet, being pretty new to this, I have to ask.

  I have so this vector mask on a layer, and singing along to the Beatles I'm changing tracks on this subject. Well, what it is is a rectangle to crop a photo, nothing crazy. This rectangle is too big for my taste - so I just draw another, smaller on the inside and plan on deleting one.

  But! The second, smaller rectangle is considered to be a delicacy to take away the first (so its interior is considered to be 'black' mask-wise, that is cut out, and its outer part is 'white', which is kept in). Thus, when you remove that first, largest, the entire image will appear, except for the part that I want in the Middle, which is cut! Yes - it's the opposite of what I want.

  Now, I tried to use the path selection tool and change the fill color of the rectangle, but you can not... So, how you reverse both inside and outside of a closed path? Thanks in advance!

  So, how you reverse both inside and outside of a closed path?

  Select the path with the tool Selection of track and in the Options bar change the path of the operations.

  

• You can blur the vector shapes in Photoshop without pixelation?

  Is there a way of blurring vector shapes in Photoshop, similar to the way in which Illustrator, bypassing the rasterization of the layer? I work with a very large file that has been reduced from 300 DPI to 50 to handle everything working. Before sending to the printer, I'm going to sclae at 300 dpi. The rasterized images will soften as you know who I think is ok when it comes to a blurred form, now that I think about it. But for later use?

  Thank you

  DM

  After experimenting, I discovered a method that works in this case. I wanted to scramble a vector shape of rectangle. I call on the form and then applied an effect of outer glow layer to form

• Question of creating Photoshop JavaScript fill layer

  You can probably guess what I'm trying to make this excerpt:

  var docRef = app.activeDocument;  var layerRef = app.activeDocument.artLayers.add(); layerRef.kind = LayerKind.SOLIDFILL;

  I would like to create a fill layer script (and then later refer to color, remove the mask, etc.). I get this response from the ExtendScript Toolkit: ' you can change only the text layer or the normal ".

  I would have thought that it would be a way to pass arguments to somehow to the add() method of artLayers ? Am I missing something really simple? Thank you.

  I know it can be done with actions, but I would like to know how to perform this task (apparently) very simple and develop to create more complex and useful scripts.

  In addition, I don't know if it's important, but I'm under Ps CC15, toolkit 4 and using script CC14 reference

  I totally understand! I'm the same way. I want to know how things work, so I can better use them. Find documentation for such things is difficult at best. The information in DOM has a little more documentation than the AOS code. Some time ago I tried to figure out how to change the AM code. I asked Jeff Tranberry on this subject, and he replied: "It is a dark art."

  Unfortunately, I think AM code is the only way to create a fill United layer, and it is the only way to make a lot of PS operations:

  

• How to remove the opacity one side of a multi-layer chassis (explained in it)

  Hello world. I wondered how to do this for awhile so I figure it's time to ask for help.

  
  

  I use 2 clips in the timeline panel. The lower part (with the chalk and the bokeh) is set to 100% opacity. The top one is assigned to 35% opacity and in the query tab, I put the image to the left. As you can see he has left a nasty line on the right where the video image of the page ends. My goal is to mix this point somehow it allows transparent lower through clamp.

  

  Hope someone here can lend a hand.

  Thank you

  Add a mask into the opacity effect and the edge of the mask of feathers. I use the rectangular mask and have the right edge within your line, adding that the pen will blur the line. Or add a vertical linear wipe and feather.

  What you download will most likely what you have on your DVD.  CS 6 version 13.0.   This is the buggiest of Photoshop version. So when you install CS6 on top of itself the first thing to do after installation is menu CS6 to use help > updates.  This should update CS 6 Version 13.0 version 13.0.1.3 on windows or 13.0.6 on Mac and ACR must be updated to version 9.1 of the cab. When you install CS6 on top of the old installation of all your actions presets and plug-ins should still be there and CS6 must be activated.

• Remove the beta version of Photoshop CS6

  Hello

  I subscribed just to creative cloud. Adobe Application Manager (for Mac) refuses to download Photoshop CS6 because he found a beta version of this application on the computer. It was originally so. But I uninsalled and struck it. How to get the app downloaded and installed?

  Thank you

  -OK, I solved this problem. It is not enough to make uninstalling the version operating per Apple beta only - you must use the Adobe utility (in the Adobe Installers folder in the Utilities folder) to achieve this.

  Only the 'big' PS gets layer groups, and so a subscription app unique creative cloud for CC PS would be 'cheaper' option.

• Vector mask thumbnails in the layers panel

  In Photoshop CC, vector mask photos see room for files and raster layers, but they don't show up for layers of fill (i.e. layers of form). How can I get a feature similar to Photoshop CS5? There is a sort of thumbnail of the shape layer, but the square icon covers 1/4 tile that makes partially useless.

  Choice you seems to be staying with an older version of dead of Photoshop or to adapt your workflow to the modified form of the Photoshop UI.

  You can simulate a shape layer to some extent to get the vector mask thumbnail. However, you would not have layers of Photpshop shape and features.

  

• Question about the functionality of vector mask

  Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to Photoshop CS 5 so I apologize if I'm asking the wrong type of questions, here goes:

  When you work with vector masks you can:

  (1) "the link" or a vector mask with the other images? ' sharing ' a picture (for example) if I did 'A Building' then duplicated, but wanted to change what build a looked like, I have to only change the mask of the source, then the copies would be updated.

  (2) move the independent image of the vector mask (it seems that I can only move the vector mask, not the image itself). Or in other words: I can move the image and have the mask to follow, instead of being only able to move the vector mask within the limits of the image?

  My application of the question:

  I do a top-down 2D layout of a zone of type "Paste". I did to fill the buildings, building A, B, C, etc. and use multiple copies of each building. Ideally, I would like to be able to 'link' or share say building has a vector mask with all other instances of building A (so that when I change the master, they all change to the new form of mask). The second behavior I have trying to find is the ability to move without moving layer where the vector mask is on this layer (since it seems that you can only move where the mask is, which means that even if I could share masks, they all finish by in the same sense of place I have to re - position each hand again.)

  Any ideas are appreciated, thank you for reading.

  Yes, it's possible, but not with the classic system layer vector mask in Photoshop. Layer masks are part of a layer and not the layers themselves, so that they can be converted into a reusable object.

  The solution is to avoid vector layer masks and use a clipping/layer instead mask. A clipping/layer mask CAN be converted into a smart object that is reusable, and when you change one, all the other instances are also changing.

  The second part of the solution is to convert the layers contained both the clipping/layer to a smart object mask. Then the batch group. By the way, if your buildings are made up of several elements simply to include these additional elements in the clipping group. Another advantage is that each of the elements may still have its own normal layer mask. Win win situation. And layer effects can be applied to layers/clipping masks, once again what is impossible for layer masks. It also opens the doors to a much less destructive workflow.

  (2) move the independent image of the vector mask (it seems that I can only move the vector mask, not the image itself). Or in other words: I can move the image and have the mask to follow, instead of being only able to move the vector mask within the limits of the image?

  This is also solved with the use of layers/clipping masks - the content and the mask can be moved independently in regular layers. Another advantage is that the two can also be transformed individually.

  Any ideas are appreciated, thank you for reading.

  So here's my solution. I made a sample with two buildings, the view from above which could be reused as desired:

  (1) first of all create groups for each building and place the content to those. Then trace layer vector shapes on the content. Set the transparency for layers of mask to a reasonable of opacity for masking easier.

  

  (2) put the vector shape under the layer of content for each building. Then, for (1) and (2), , click on the border between the content and the shape layer. (for Mac), this will hide the enrichment of the content. (3) remember to layer for shape layers opacity to 100%!

  

  (3) then we will turn this building into recyclable items. Convert each content and layer to a smart object clipping mask. Then rename these layers of dynamic object into something sensible (honestly, I forgot to label the layers well earlier, but you catch my meaning here ;-)

  

  Fact! To clone each building, duplicate layer groups. For each instance that you can move the content (which is handy if you share multiple charts of building in the same bitmap or illustrator file), or you can decide to move the mask in place. Or both. It is the same for the transformation. Your choice. To move or transform a building, select the layer group.

  To change or modify the masks or the contents, double-click the smart object of your choice and make a few changes.

  Also, remember that you can insert additional elements in a clipping group by placing it over the first layer and then clipped by clicking again on the border between them. So, in theory, you could start building different looking buildings by adding other dynamic objects in clipping groups. The sky is the limit! In this way, you can create several building blocks to build various buildings with different looks. And still limit the number of blocks - and any update-able.

  Unfortunately, that's when the workflow breaks down a bit: due to the implementation of the object dynamic in Photoshop, you can't change the mask or the contents of the building in context - instead, it opens in its own window of file. This can be somewhat mitigated by placing the two windows side by side (window-> fix--> double vertical installation).

  This brings us to the second caveat: when you make a change, the changes are not updated in real time in the master document. You must first save it. Still a bit of a flow of work, but when same breaker... At least you now have a workflow not destructive instantiated.

  The content of the dynamic object can be replaced easily with a right-click of the mouse on the smart object layer itself. Or use a dynamic object referenced externally instead if you prefer to generate your buildings in an external application.

  BTW, the layer of Photoline system is much more logical and easier to use for this type of work. Layer masks behave like regular diapers. Layers, groups, masks, layers of external file and so forth can be practically cloned and instantiated as smart objects, but the main object is editable in the context, and all the other instances updated in real time. So, it is more convenient. At least this is my experience.

  I hope this has been helpful! Now go build your cities. :-)

  PS: I thought: isn't Illustrator or InDesign is a much more logical choice for this type of work where you need access to reusable blocks of content? It would also be a more efficient workflow and faster - Photoshop is not really designed for this type of work. Illustrator and InDesign provide potentially out of better quality. You can also divide your work into the pages and so on. Here again, you would probably lose the flexibility of smart objects.

• How to apply a vector mask to the background

  In my tutorial, I was told to choose a flower with the pen tool and magnetic box checked.  Then, hold down the command key, then press the vector mask button in the layers panel, with the path of the chosen flower.  In the tutorial, the flower is left and the background has disappeared.  But when I did, the flower has disappeared and the bottom remained.  How can I remove the background?

  

  I guess you checked the shape before subtracting, select combine forms instead.

  Then apply the vector mask.

• Photoshop CS5 - Move layer with a vector mask applied

  Hello world

  I work with Photoshop CS5 and that you have encountered a problem. I can't seem to select a layer (with a vector mask applied) and move it, even with the automatic selection on layer. I can move when the vector mask is off or when I rasterize the vector mask.

  Am I wrong in thinking that I was able to select a layer (with a vector mask applied) before, and it is a bug? Or I'm completely wrong and it has never been possible?

  I have attached a screenshot for reference.

  

  Oops, after re-reading my question I realized that I didn't have the word correctly.

  I would like to select the layer/object and physically move around the artboard using the move tool. But it won't let me select and move around, unless I have clear/rasterize the vector mask.

  Thanks if Yohanna! My bad.
