How to slice object and stroke with knife tool?

I am trying to slice an object into 2 pieces using the knife tool. The problem is that both cut pieces retain a complete stroke outlining the object rather than a cut stroke. How do I slice the object in half and get the effect of cutting thru the stroke as well? Thanks!

I don't believe you can do this in a single operation. You'll need to knife the object, then select the newly created segment on each object with the direct selection tool, then delete to open each path.
But this is likely to cause another problem: once you delete the path segment that you knifed through, the object's fill will form a straight edge from one open end point to the other. IOW, you'll lose any curvature you might have created with the knife.
There may be another way; others who are more adept will be along to offer it I'm sure.

  • How to best change shoulder shape with pen tool: cut graphic in half and reflect?

    Hi,
    I'm working with a .eps file of a mannequin. I need to make the shoulders more square and more rounded to show variations on body type. I'm not an illustrator whiz, but I thought that it would be best to slice the graphic down the middle, alter one shoulder, and then reflect it so that they are even. But how do I do cut it in half?
    I've been playing with the convert anchor point tool to change the should shape and while it works, it's very hard for me to replicate the exact same effect on the opposite side. I've uploaded the file so that you can see what I'm talking about. If anyone could suggest the best route, I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

    For the scissors, you need to insert extra anchor points at the cutting point.
    It is not necessary to insert an anchorPoint before cutting a segment with the Scissor.
    Also, assuming we're talking about closed or filled path(s) here:
    1. Knife Tool.
    2. Press and hold Alt.
    3. Drag the Knife all the way across the Path(s). Add Shift to constrain to vertical/horizontal/45 diagonal angles.
    If the paths are open and unfilled, the Knife tool is useless. It also does not abide by SmartGuides. (Illustrator has three cutting tools and they are all pathetic.)

  • How to pass username and password with the portal url

    i want to access portal from my web site. i have created username and password fields in my web page. when submited , my portal page should open. so how to pass username and password with the portal url.

    This is not straightforward; but it is doable.
    First tell us about your portal version; portal 10.1.4 has a slightly different method of doing it and the pre-10g portals were completely different animals.
    And if you are in AS Rel 2, then the most important document for you would probably be the following:
    [Creating Deployment Specific Pages| http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/idmanage.1012/b14078/custom.htm#i1015535]
    You might want to use it in conjunction with some metalink notes about your portal version and such a login page.
    hope that helps!

  • How can I authenticate and authorize with Web Service on ESB ?

    Hello,
    I want to authenticate and authorize client with Web Service published
    by HTTP/SOAP BC.
    Simply if it is an Web Service as J2EE application, I will use
    Basic Authentication with JAX-RPC and Realm.
    But I think that Web Service published by HTTP/SOAP BC is not belong
    to J2EE Application. Threre is no place to describe security role mapping
    (like web.xml).
    JBI 1.0 the section "5.5.1.1.3 Normalized Message Properties" comments
    JAAS Subject is given in the NM Properties. Really in this package
    com.sun.jbi.internal.security.*
    implements JAAS autentication and authorization (at JaasAuthenticator).
    But I can't see how to configure my Service to use this.
    How can I authenticate and authorize with Web Service on ESB ?
    I referred to the resources.

    Earlier, I wrote:
    What is the ppi value in the document?  Use the Image - Image Size menu to see or set this value.
    I can't believe this conversation has gone on this long.  You keep wanting it to be a bug, but it seems to me the basic problem here is that you haven't accepted the fact that YOU are responsible for getting the image metadata in order before you can use tools like the Ruler to read out in physical units, such as inches or centimeters, accurately.
    Photoshop can only know the size of things in your document if you or your workflow provide it an accurate ppi value!
    What's the original source of the material?  A scanner?  If so, some part of the scanning or image preparation process has left you with an inaccurate ppi value.
    For the documents you're already working with, use Image - Image Size, then UNcheck the Resample Image checkbox and type in the correct ppi value.  Then everything will work.

  • Set fill and stroke with events?

    I have a SWF with Shapes created with AS. When an event
    fires, I want to change the fill and stroke of the Shape.
    I know how to do the event, but what's the syntax to modify
    the fill and stroke?
    For reference, in my Class's creator function I have:
    // create the base circle
    baseCircle.graphics.beginFill(0xFFFFFF,1);
    baseCircle.graphics.lineStyle(2,0x69A733,1);
    baseCircle.graphics.drawCircle(0,0,45);
    this.addChild(baseCircle);
    So what I would want to do here is change the lineStyle to
    0xff0000 and the fill to 0xFFFF00 (for example).

    What I wound up doing, which works but seems wonky, is to
    clear the graphics and re-create them as needed (see attached).
    Those event dispatchers are for things I want the parent app
    to do.

  • How to show Date and Time with TimeZone

    Dear All,
    I have to show Date and Time with TimeZone abbreviation,
    for example:
    1) 31 March 2011 2:30 in india standard time - it should show in screen 31 March 2011 2:30 IST.
    2) 31 March 2011 2:30 in Australia/New Zealand - Eastern time zone it should show in screen 31 March 2011 2:30 AEST.
    how can i show *Australia/New Zealand - Eastern time zone to AEST*,
    I tried with format DD MMM YYYY HH:MM zzz, and i looked time zone API too.
    Appreciate your help
    Thanks

    Dayananda wrote:
    ok, than i have to use zzzz format, as z won't help in my case, so i have to use zzzz which display descriptive value like, Indian Standard Time i.e. ISTPer the javadocs there is a very specific reason why that is a problem especially if you intend to support many timezones in one application.
    "+For compatibility with JDK 1.1.x, some other three-letter time zone IDs (such as "PST", "CTT", "AST") are also supported. However, their use is deprecated because the same abbreviation is often used for multiple time zones (for example, "CST" could be U.S. "Central Standard Time" and "China Standard Time"), and the Java platform can then only recognize one of them+."
    Thus you have one single case where there can be many and moreover it can change (twice a year I believe.)
    There is a standard source for this information although when I tried it it appears to not work.
    If the app only needs to display one zone then provide a configuration value that allows a user to overload the display value.
    If the app needs to display many values then you MUST inform business users of the problem because there are duplicates and they, not you, need to decide specifically what happens in those cases.

    Hi Carol,
    I've read the rule of the commas for modules, but not for tags ... so thought maybe this is why is not working ... but again, I'm just trying to figure it out.
    I'm still confusing about when and how use modules and tags properly.
    I've found this short guide for TAGS that says literaly:
    "Note: Tags are not transferrable and cannot be shared across all modules. Use the specific tags listed with each module as shown below: "
    http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/134/bc_1342.html?bc-partner
    You may access through your  BC aacount ... search by "Tags - Quick Reference" ... this is a little different that the one from ADOBE site.
    You'll see that the tags can be customizable by modules and not the way you are doing.
    HOWEVER, take a look at another short guide that might give you another options ... I'm gonna try this too.
    This is at http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2721  .... scroll down until STEP 4 and see some customizations for Product Tags
    I have a similar case like yours .... I want to show discounts and previous prices only on Sale items ... like I do at http://tesonline02.businesscatalyst.com/outerwear/avatar      ... and hide all these for regular items.
    Haven't found a clear tutorial, neither the responses are completly satisfactory... someone told me use the tag_sale and the rest through CSS ... but ... how??? ...  this is so frustrating
    .. have you found a good tutorial?
    I'm trying to find a response for that ...  keep you posted so you may apply it in your case.

  • How to find objects and classes

    hi
    any notes or path on objects and classes on crm?

    Hi Kumara
    I beleive your talking about the Classification system.
    To get to this go here: SPRO->IMG->Cross-Application Components - -> Classification System - -> Classes - -> Maintain Object Keys
    This will give a list of Tables which are currently set with Object Keys, you may need to add a new table and configure.
    Next
    To get to this go here: SPRO->IMG->Cross-Application Components - -> Classification System - -> Classes - -> Maintain Object Types and Class Types
    Here you assign a Class Type to Link your Table from the previous step, this class new Class Type will be used with a New Class to created in the following steps.
    Goto Transaction CT04 - Create Characteristics
    Here you create effectively attributes of a Class (Fields)
    Goto Transaction CL01 - Create New Class
                              or CL02 - Maintain Class
    Create a new class linked to your Class Type from previous steps
    On the Char.. Tab you can add the new Characteristics created in the previous step to your new Class.
    Based on the Object Key from the first step, these new attributes shoulds all now link together. If the key is of type 'RAW'  (Binary) it may not be possible to link correctly, therefore some ABAP maybe required to create the link, depending on your application.
    Hope this helps.
    <b>Reward with points if useful.</b>
