• I use CS6 and when I use the pen tool, it removes the Interior isn't the external image of the image

  I've been using photoshop cs5 and cs6 for some time, but I've never encountered this problem. Whenever I use the pen tool to draw an object and I close the outline object, it deletes the object I have traced him and not the bottom. It's really annoying and I can't change it. I have spentt a good amount of time to try to change but I don't know how. Can someone please help I also watched online, but there is nothing to help.
  Thank you Alex

• Photoshop CS4: Using the pen tool to add corner rather than the curved anchor anchors

  Hello people, I tried everything I could think about using different sentences, but have yet to find a way to do it or if it was possible. I'm working on a project that requires the addition of many corner anchors to paths. By default, using the feather of Photoshop CS4 adds curve anchors. Therefore I have to add the anchor and then convert it into a corner. Is there an easy way to make the PS to create corners instead of curves with the pen tool? Even using combos Shift-Ctrl-alt-click did not help? Would save me time and mental health!

  Thank you all,

  Try adding points with the normal pen, hold down the ALT key and clicking twice.

• How can I quickly turn in selection after using the pen tool?

  Is there a quick key/s to make a selection with what I come with the pen tool?

  I don't know if there is a keyboard shortcut, but I created an action to do and then assign one of the function keys to this action. I wanted a 1 feather px on my selection, that's why I've included that in the action as well.

• Need help using the intersect tool (Adobe Illustrator CS5)

  Currently, I'm learning to do a Fox in Adobe Illustrator CS5 a tutorial online, however the intersect tool in the area of pathfinder does not work the way I want.

  After:
  
  However, I tried to cut the end of the runway so that it looks like this:
  
  Someone please help and explain what I am doing wrong, the answers will be greatly appreciated. I choose the tail and the end of the tail, but when I type intersect, the tail basically everything disappears.

  There is always an effect applied to the tail. You must first expand appearance (in the menu object)

• Make wavy/wavy lines WITHOUT the pen tool? Help! (Image included)

• Y at - it a keyboard shortcut to break the handles of the points while you use the pen?

  When you use the pen tool, it smooths the points that you add, but sometimes I'm not, so far, the only way that I was able to fight against this phenomenon is using pen, press V to switch to the selection tool, click to deselect the path, and then press P to use the tool pen once again and then again by selecting the end point.

  This process becomes very annoying during long projects, and I hope that someone will be able to solve for my.

  (I want more precisely the keyboard shortcut for Mac, but it would be good if you could give the PC keyboard shortcut too for other people looking at it.)

  Use the Alt key to move to the anchor-point-conversion tool temporarily. Use the command key to proceed to the last used Selection tool temporarily

• The button mask dimmed when the pen tool selected?

  Hello...

  I'll follow a tutorial on how to use the pen tool.

  The tut shows that I should be able to click the button mask to create a trans BG. However, mine is grayed out. I can't find a reason why this would be. I am able to use the layer mask in other circumstances.

  (The tut to take me a picture to draw around the image on practice of pulling/slide, twist, adding handles and so forth).

  I have the pen tool on the way, but the mask becomes not available in one of the options.

  The tut said to click on Ctrl + click on the path, and then click the button mask.

  Any ideas why the mask is gray?

  As always ~ I really appreciate your help.

  Hope you are having a great day/night

  You must convert the background layer to a regular layer by double clicking on the thumbnail of the layer in the layers panel.

  Press OK in the dialog box that follows.

  To convert the active path into a selection, press Ctrl + Enter (or right click in the path and choose to make selection), and then press the button layer mask on the bottom of the layers panel.
