shape between AE and Illustrator layers

Hello

I wonder why most designers use illustrator to create illustrations in Adobe illustrator, and then exporting and their animation in AE rather than create directly in AE. This way is more profitable and easier.

Thank you.

There are a lot of tools in Illustrator to create vector illustrations. Illustrator also offers you the advantage of projects laying in layers. 95% of all my work vector for AE is in Illustrator, because it is faster and more effective, better adapted and designed for the illustration. Shape in the AE layers are somewhat clumsy, but if you need convert a layer to HAVE a form you can have access to all the tools of layer shape and effects with a single click. The only time where that I use layers of shape for the design work is when I go specifically for a shape as a Repeater layer effect. Even then, many times the layer will consist firstly in artificial intelligence...

  • the difference between photoshop and illustrator effects?

    In the menu effects cs5, what is the difference between photoshop and illustrator effects? When you use the those Photoshop?

    Thank you.

    The effects of Photoshop are copies of similar effects from Photoshop. Therefore, they cannot be applied to the art of raster, such as modified in Photoshop. When you apply a Photoshop Illustrator art effect that you apply it is pixelated in the background and the effect is applied to the art raster version. If you expand the appearance of anything with a Photoshop top effect it will be pixelated. Other effects to retain all or part of the vector art. When you expand the effect or save a PDF file at least some of the original will vector art remain as vectors, although some effects (drop shadow, blur, feather, inner glow, etc.) to add pixelated art to the file.

    Pixelization is not harmful, because the original vector, type or other objects remain fully editable. If you remove the effect the pixelation disappears. There is no dialogue for the resolution of the effect rasterization; you define which in effect > Document pixelation effect parameters.

  • Compatibility between chemdraw and Illustrator

    Hello

    I use illustrator version 2015.1.0 on mac. My version of chemdraw is chemdraw first 15.1.0

    When I copy any chemdraw drawing, I can't paste into illustrator. So if I want to change this image in chemdraw (like if you double-click a chemdraw in word, it will open like chemdraw and you can change it), I can't do it.

    My question is...

    Is it possible to change a structure chemdraw incorporated into illustrator? Advanced warhead Assembly in chemdraw and Illustrator?

    Thanks in advance

    Doesn't look like they have a plug-in specific AI which would record an 'object ChemDraw' and allow editing of the living. Yet, why not export their program in PDF or SVG format and place a file bound in artificial intelligence?

  • The line between foreground and background layers

    Hi all

    I'm sure this question has been asked and answered, but no matter how I word in search engines I have just never a solution that corresponds exactly to my question, or a solution that solved my problem.

    The question that I meet is when I do a black and white photo and bring out a color by selecting color with the magic switch areas. Once I have the selected color box I have reverse and put the rest of the black and white image, or I have create a new duplicated layer and will remove the content in a single layer and possibly merge the layers of color and black and white to make my final image.

    My problem is that I always get a white space between the colors and images in black and white or layers. I tried to use the option menu edge refine, but never, this solves the problem as the feather and moving edge option do not cover the gap, they just move.

    I resorted to the use of the tool concealer to hide the row, or to merge the layers of color and black and white. The problem with that is some times it is in a very visible place and the Healing Brush tool doesn't always look great. In other words, you can tell that I merged two colors or images together.

    I also have this problem when I use the tool of selection on images I blur portions of. It seems to happen at any time, I use the toold selection and I guess that there is a standard way to avoid this.

    No known photoshop elements fighters advice or tactics would be greatly appreciated. Usually, I can understand this kind of things out, but I can't simply solve this problem.

    Thanks in advance!

    I use 11 items if this information is useful at all.

    Instead of using one of the selection tools, try to select the object with a mask. With the mask, you can hide in paint with a black brush, revealing (and correct) with a white brush. I use PSEv.8, so I have to take hostage an adjustment layer mask, but your version of the program has a buit of mask.

    Here is a picture of a brick wall for demonstration

    http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1bPkncRl9f24RslkWKdP0NyaYIt9N1

    Try this:

    • Open image file
    • Duplicate the background layer
    • Convert the background copy layer black and white
    • Apply the mask. Left click on the mask
    • Paint with a black brush where you want to reveal the color. If you go too far, correct with a white brush
  • Differences between Photoshop and Illustrator pixel files

    Hello everyone.


    I've always wondered why this happens: if I create a file in Photoshop to, say 1080 x 1080 pixels (at 300 dpi) and then import it into a work plan Illustrator with the same dimensions, it is much smaller.

    B.

    Illustrator respects the DPI setting.

    Photoshop displays work for the resolution of the monitor (1 pixel of the image is 1 pixel of screen when we zoom 100%)

  • Persistence of extension Illustrator between close and open again

    I create an extension in eclipse that redirect a web where I have connection and I have the possibility to connect the Panel and don't forget the user.

    All works well, but if I close illustrator and open once again, I think that it does not record this information and I need to connect again.

    I use windows 8 and chrome as default browser.

    It's something on the configuration of the cookies? In Xavier are enabled.

    How can I activate the persistence of my extension between close and open illustrator variables? It is a web application.

  • Time zone time/Daylight Savings conflict between Windows 7 and Illustrator CS6

    When summer time made its change this spring I started having problems saving files in Illustrator. I'm going to save the files, mainly the format .eps, and Illustrator, it blocks. I changed my time zone to an area that has not yet transformed because of DST, and it works. Unfortunately, I think a new time zone, also, he ends up hitting DST, and I'm at square one. I have searched once the Adobe site and the Windows site to find an answer to my problem, but am having no luck.

    My correct time zone

    (UTC-07:00) Mountain Time (US & Canada)

    I even tried to use Saskatchewan because they do not follow daylight saving time, but she also creates accidents. I tried several other time zones, the two worked so far are

    (UTC-06:00) Guadalajara, Mexico City, Monterrey (worked for a little while but a change in the weather a few weeks later messed up)

    (UTC) Casablanca (working on that area of time now), but an alert on my computer says that the changes in time to come the 28th

    Anyone know if there is a fix for this problem? I feel like I'm short on time, because I don't know how much more time zones will work.

    I finally found the solution! My account is configured as an administrator, but for some reason any Illustrator did not open with administrator permissions. I have to go to my menu start, right click on Illustrator and open as administrator. Suddenly, everything works more fast, more fluid and correctly! I do not understand the reason behind all this, but at least it's working correctly now.

  • Fireworks, Photoshop, and Illustrator

    Hello

    I don't know whether to show this in the Fireworks, Photoshop, Illustrator forums or. Horrible design of two other forums and the fact that no matter how it was referenced, I could not find a button to add a topic (and Yes, I was connected) brought me here.

    The new replacement for Studio, CS3 Web Premium suite includes Photoshop and Illustrator. I know that both Fireworks and Illustrator for vector graphics, but other then that, what is the difference between the three? Why should I use all three when I could get with one - is there a specific use for each? Who could be better to create a Web site model?

    Thank you
    Dylan

    PS: Has there created tutorials on the software suite available somewhere, as the Studio explores those Adobe?

    Yes, the old Adobe forums are pretty bad, aren't they? :) These forums are quite slow, but - another reason some people prefer to use the sync all newsgroups around instead.

    No problem to post here, just don't be surprised if everyone says fire Fireworks is the best. ;) In fact, each tool is unique, the best at what they do.

    Everybody will tell you this, but it's really true: the best way is to download the trial of three and give them a spin. What kind of things you want to do? Choose something and try to do it in three, you will know what is best for the task quite quickly. Do not throw just a few random shapes and text around, that won't really do you give a good idea of how a real project would come down for you. Choose a practical project and do in each of the three.

    That being said, here is a summary of all three, in my opinion:

    Illustrator: Vector application, little or no Advanced frame mounting bracket. Curve learning of the powerful but very high for most people. Illustrator is printing and is rarely used for the work of the web, if you can. It has many features specific impression which are meaningless for the web and sometimes confusing and misleading for web designers.

    Photoshop: Advanced raster, vector editing program little support (sometimes critical as having no "real" vector support). Powerful image manipulation capabilities, has an average learning curve, but many gaps of efficiency according to me, making it frustrating for many beginners. Photoshop was originally for printing (and still is) but has developed some decent web features oriented (export, slices, etc.). However, it's dueling print/web feature set can get in the way both when you are dealing with a medium or the other.

    Fireworks: hybrid vector and raster Editor, exclusively for web design (not printed). All the basic features of edition of vector and raster editing combined in a very coherent, transparent environment, but found the more advanced features of vector in Illustrator or more advanced raster in Photoshop. Pretty easy learning curve. Fireworks is designed specifically for the web and has been since the beginning, has so many features focused on the web, making very targeted for web design and overall very intuitive for most web designers. For example, Fireworks is the only application of the three that has support for multi-page documents, which is really useful for web design.

    Hope that helps! I am sure that you will get more answers. :)

  • Get the text of a pdf form to fill in Illustrator layers

    Hi all

    OK, here's the thing. I have some PDF forms with multiple lines and columns and the information in them. I need to take this information and place Illustrator layered on a file. I've seen examples here accomplished that, with Excel files, but is there a way to do it from a PDF form? I use CS6 and Javascript.

    I appreciate any help you can provide me.

    Kind regards

    If you are in the export of files and to analyze text manually and forms are conducive to this, you can try to export data to PDF form as xml or .fdf (?) file, those who provide a text of these data document.

  • Difference between 'Form' and 'object '.

    I am writing today a guide in my native language and want to understand the difference between 'Object' and 'Form' for Illustrator. We have menu object in the Panel and can find a few options of forms under this menu.

    Also we program this object is:

    In computing, an object can be a variable, a data structure, a function or a methodand as such, is a location in memory value and possibly referenced by an identifier.

    In class-based object-oriented programming paradigm, 'object' refers to an instance of a class where the object can be a combination of data structures, functions, and variables.

    Relational database management, an object can be a table or column or an association between data and entity of database (such as the age of a person concerning a particular person). [1]

    So my question is: If we create a form in artificial intelligence can we call it 'object' and vs. ?

    There is menu item "Create object mosaic" option which works only with raster images. This is why any other object in artificial intelligence is not object?

    Thank you

    "In illustrator is an 'Application based on the objects' any item placed in the drawing area that you can select is called" object "where as".

    a form is an object of two dimension.

    We could say : each form is an object , BUT not every object is a form.

  • How do I animate my illustrator layers in Flash Professional?

    I imported an illustrator file into flash. I have 300 layers. I'm doing an animation. each of my illustrator layers has a small part of a larger design. I want the animation to play all the layers, one after the other, 'building' design. each layer, while he plays, will remain on the screen. not sure if it is clear. Currently I have a layer in flash with these 300 images/layers from illustrator. NOW, after talking with the support of the conversation, I have each layer on a layer separate from flash, but I'm still not sure #1 how play them as a movie and 2 # how 'building' in the larger picture?

    Any help would be appreciated!

    It's about the process. Drawing in Flash tools are quite different and less complex than Illustrator. Some methods are easier to Flash some are easier in Illustrator. For what you want to do, it looks like you could be better off starting in Flash.

  • Question to buy Photoshop and Illustrator

    Hi does anyone know if the CC of Photoshop from photography plan is the same as that of the unique implementation plan? Or the plan of photography will provide only photoshop with limited functions?

    Because I'm an Illustrator, I only need to use Photoshop and Illustrator. Can I buy the Photoshop of photography plan and buy illustrator of plan app unique instead of buying all the apps?

    1. This is the same program Photoshop. With the map of photography, you have access to Lightroom too, but you don't need to install it if you don't want it.
