• Paste a vector smart object in Photoshop

  I was wondering if anyone knew a way to paste a vector smart object from illustrator into photoshop without the forthcoming dialog box which you accept the size/place of the object.

  I am able to do this using the code of the scriptlistener plugin spit but not without it. Unfortunately, I do turn a few problems with the help of the code the scriptlistener spit so I was wondering if anyone knew a way to do without that.

  Thank you!

  The only other way I can think of is to use...

  app.activeDocument.paste ();

  Call an external program to send an enter in Photoshop.

• Vector smart object is rendered wrong.

  Has anyone cross a problem when pasting of the complex vector smart objects in Photoshop CC?

  I created a form in Illustrator CC, it adds an extrude and bevel effect and then pasted as a smart object in Photoshop CC. The first example of what it looks like in Illustrator CC, the second is that it sticks like in Photoshop CC.
  As you can see, it's making it very difficult and totally unusable as a smart object.

  

  I've recently updated to CC, and it never happened in CS5. Is there a new CC preference that can reproduce the vector objects? Maybe something I cut by accident?

  Thank you

  Mike

  Photoshop is made just as Illustrator in the PDF or EPS file.

  And the rendering quality has greatly improved since CS5.

  But Photoshop can use Illustrator puts in the PDF or EPS file (written Illustrator it's own private data of institutions - which is what it works with for editing).

• Objects vector smart object - file format

  What is the best file format to save a photoshop file that has a number of vector smart objects that will eventually print? File can be placed in illustrator or indesign prior to be expelled to the printer either as direct files or on the PDF.

  Danny is correct: smart objects are STILL pixelated in resolution of the PSD, regardless of the format that you save it in.

  If you want to print any dynamic objects with imported objects vector (illustrator?) to setter image max resolution, you must extract these objects in the PSD file and rebuild the design in Illustrator or InDesign.

  It means that the smart object in question, which opens in Illustrator, and then save the file as a file HAVE editing. Remove the smart object in the PSD in Photoshop, then save a new version. Note the exact dimensions and positions. Open the file in InDesign and rebuild the original.

  If the layer effects have been applied in Photoshop to a matter SO vector: no chance. You will need to generate layers separated in the best of cases, or begin to recreate the effects in Illustrator in the worst case scenario. Or a combination of both.

  Vector shapes and the Type that were generated in Photoshop with effects applied to him may be problematic if the resolution of the PSD is insufficient. However, the outline remains vector while recording in Photoshop PDF format. Import the PDF into InDesign retains the sharp vector contour. Just make sure that the native resolution of the Photoshop document is high enough to produce a strong impression for effects (which will be pixels).

  The problem is that a lot of designers decided to convert their photoshop vector shapes and text in smart objects - and this will rasterize the result, no matter what. And there is no easy way to "unsmart" a dynamic object.

  A method (far from perfect) is:

  • Double-click the smart object to open it in a new window
  • Select all the layers in the .psb (dynamic object) that opens
  • Choose Layer > Group the menu
  • Hold down the SHIFT key and drag the window of smart objects to your original document with the move tool window.
  • Drag the icon fx the dynamic object for the new group of layers layer you just drag over
  • Remove the smart object layer.

  The only caveats to this method are scale and positioning. You may have to reposition some groups according to their interaction with the edges of the original document. And if you scale the smart object layer, you may need to scale of the group as well.

  Here is a script that automates some of this: http://blog.kam88.com/en/expanding-smart-objects-script.html

  This will ONLY work with SOs that were created in Photoshop.

  Dynamic objects are bothersome creatures indeed. Much too easy for designers unknowing to destroy the intent of vectors and difficult and potentially very tedious to undo in a news environment.

  The problem is that a lot of users tend to abuse of Photoshop as a request to print 'all-in-one' layout

• The Vector Smart Objects open in Illustrator

  This was good work but after recently update to Photoshop the connection "Photoshop > Illustrator" together seem to be broken. Whenever I try to double-click a vector smart object in the layers panel, I get this (instead of automatically open in Illustrator as before):

  

  Very annoying. I'm on PC. Help!

• Vector smart object inside another dynamic object with loss of quality suite scale

  Hello

  I have 6 icons created in Illustrator and imported as vector smart objects.

  Then, I select all 6 and create another object of Smart from there.

  If I resized now this dynamic object, it loses it s quality, as if the icons are raster in the first place.

  This is not what happened in PS CS5.

  It s a bug or "novelty"?

  Rodrigo C.

  You must realize that Photoshop makes pixels for the embedded object then when you resize the smart object layer it evolve as and layer rasterizes by interpolation not reduced with vector graphics. His work of the layers the way smart object. His is a very old thread on the topic

• What is the best way to manipulate the shape of a layer to smart object in Photoshop?

  I have a smart object in photoshop which is a rectangle, and I want to deform slightly so it looks it was filed on the ground (basically, I need to change the position of the corners to make it look in perspective).

  If I did that to an object in Illustrator I was going to just use the direct Selection tool and drag the anchor points in the corners of the rectangle. I know there is a direct selection tool in Photoshop, but my smart object doesn't seem to have all the anchor points on it to manipulate (v. new Photoshop user, sorry).

  I know you can use a mesh of string objects, but as this is just a simple rectangle I was hoping that it would be a less complicated way? That it's just the positioning of the corners that must fit.

  Thanks for the tips!

  Alanna salvation,

  You can use Edition > free transform or Ctry/Cmd-T, to reshap the smart object.

• LR4.1: 'Edit In' > 'open as Smart Object in Photoshop... "function. "does not work with 32-bit

  Hello

  I am running LR4.1/CS5/ACR6.7 on a Win7 64 bit system.

  The function 'Edit-In' > 'open as Smart Object in Photoshop... '. "works Ok with raw files (.) (NEF).

  However, when I try to use the same functionality with 32-bit. TIFF files (which came out of the LR4.1 'Edit' > 'Merge to HDR Pro in Photoshop...) ("another feature), nothing happened (the Photoshop windows application opens but out of the picture I have just chosen).

  I used engines research and Adobe online help to see if there was any limitation preventing the use of this feature with 32-bit. TIF files but could not see this note.

  Thanks for your help!

  Albert

  Have you tried convert your 32-bit Tiff in a DNG (could save first...)?

  The new DNG specification is supposed to manage higher-bit images. Maybe the DNG format you will get beyond the issue.

• smart objects in Photoshop

  My Pixelize dynamic objects with the resizing. When imported in EPS, placed directly vectors of GOT it, my smart objects Pixelize with resizing. Also, my dynamic objects are not make hi res when exporting to PDF, however they have the thin air in photoshop and design. Im confused, that's the first time in photoshop has already done that for me.

  Please note that my anti-aliasing button is checked when objects are placed.

  Thank you!!!

  If you create your pdf to 72 dpi, then this is where I think that your problem lies. You can it not output at 300 PPI? This way your result would be much better.

• What happened to the automatic editing vector smart object function?

  Photoshop has been recently updated,

  in Photoshop previous app when the layer double click on a dynamic object that were made with copy/paste from illustrator, illustrator open editing automatically, now I get this message:

  

  Windows 7 operating system.

  How can someone drag a layer to illustrator?

  It does not work

  bring this function please... :-), this feature is necessary

  is it something to do with the preferences of the application?

  Thanks in advance

  :-)

  If you pasted as a smart object with the option 'Add to my current library' enabled, I think that Photoshop will use the version of the library.

  Uncheck the option 'Add to my current library' to get the old way back.

• How to detect smart objects in Photoshop?

  Hello

  I need to detect the smart objects files related to local level to specific JavaScript locations in the HTML5 extension. How can I do this?

  Consider this pseudo-code:

    if (app.documents.length)
    {
      var doc = app.activeDocument;
      for (var ilayer = 0; ilayer < doc.artLayers.length; ilayer++)
      {
        var layer = doc.artLayers[ilayer];
        if (LAYER_IS_LINKED_SMART_OBJECT(layer))
        {
          var localFilePath = GET_SMART_OBJECT_REFERENCED_FILEPATH(layer);
        }
      }
    } 
  

  Here, I need implementations of two functions:

  1 LAYER_IS_LINKED_SMART_OBJECT()

  2 GET_SMART_OBJECT_REFERENCED_FILEPATH()

  Thank you in advance!

  Here is the final solution (with no error checking):

    if (app.documents.length)
    {
      var doc = app.activeDocument;
      for (var ilayer = 0; ilayer < doc.artLayers.length; ilayer++)
      {
        var layer = doc.artLayers[ilayer];
        if (layer.kind == LayerKind.SMARTOBJECT)
        {  
  
          var ref = new ActionReference();
          ref.putIdentifier(charIDToTypeID('Lyr '), layer.id );
  
          var desc = executeActionGet(ref);
          var smObj = desc.getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID('smartObject'));
          var localFilePath = smObj.getPath(stringIDToTypeID('link'));
        }
      }
    } 
  

• where can I find smart object in photoshop? Not the button but the actual location of the file.

  Could someone tell me where to find the file saved to the dynamic object? I need to change my mac and all move to the new machine. I want to make sure I have everything, I'm missing all the PSB to smart object files. Where is he? and please don't tell me that I need to copy one by one to the temp folder that appear ONLY when I open the smart object.

  Unless the dynamic object is a dynamic object-related, they are stored in the master file. There is no separate file. When you double-click and edit the file SO, it opens the PSB file in the OS temp directory and deletes this file once the main file is closed, unless you save it in another location.

• Transform will not work on a smart object in Photoshop CC 2015

  I can't to scale the smart object. I take the transformation handles and pull it where I want, but when I let go of the handle the transformation box disappears and the image returns to its original size. He will not keep the transformation.

  It's been a while, but I know that I've done it before. A suggestion that I read was to rasterize the smart object. Who does not use the transformation, but it removes the ability to open the smart object and make adjustments in Camera Raw. When I'm compositing, I want to use the smart object to quickly set things like the color temperature.

  Anyone know the solution?

  Try to reset your preferences: ctrl/cmd-alt/opt-shift at the start of the PS.

• Why CC 2015.1 allow me to work with the vector Smart Objects?

  Since the update, I was unable to use the dynamic vector objects to switch between Photoshop and Illustrator. I can bring things manually, one to the other, but I don't like having to relocate my vectors whenever I need to change. This seems to be a step backwards if Adobe has intentionally disabled this.

  I double click on the vector layer in Photoshop and she usually opens in Illustrator, I rather get a "Script alert" which said "it is not directly editable in Photoshop, but it can be placed in a document. To move the item, drag and drop it into an open document. "Like I can't drag and drop a layer in Illustrator to make changes, that is not really do me much good.

  If anyone has any information on how to resolve this problem on a PC which would be amazing,

  Thank you!
