Outline stroke not working in CS6

so I just create a straight, uniform line and press Effect > Path > Outline Stroke... but nothing happens
not sure if I'm doing something wrong... or if there is a bug?
thanks,
Terrence.

thanks for your reply...
the line has a black, 10 pt, uniform stroke on it.... I click the outline stroke command and nothing happens... an fx does appear in the appearance palette, but when I click the Outline Stroke item there nothing opens... every other effect opens a dialog window...

  • CS3 Outline Stroke not working?

    Hi there,
    I am using Illustrator CS3 on my mac, and when I use the outline stroke command, no matter what brush i've used for the stroke, it makes right angles. so if i use a round brush and make a line, so it looks like a skinny rounded rectangle - when i do the outline stroke command, i get a rectangle. i know this worked properly for me in cs2, but i'm not sure if it has worked right for me in cs3. any thoughts on what might be wrong? thanks!!

    You shouldn't be using Outline Stroke on a live Brush path. Use Expand Appearance. (Often good to follow with the Merge Pathfinder.)
    If you just want to outline a uniform-weight path with rounded caps and joins, you don't need the Brush. Just give the path a thick stroke, set its caps and joins to round and *then* use Outline Stroke. (Bugs in CS3 notwithstanding.)

  • Path Stroke not working properly CS6?

    Hello, I am using a work path in Photoshop CS6 with maybe 2-300 unique lines. The issue is that when I attempt to stroke the path, only about 80% of the lines get stroked, and some are incomplete or are a slightly different (thinner) width.
    Here is what I am doing to get this result: I have linked the path to a blank layer via layer>vector mask>current path, selecting the brush tool, and pressing stroke path in the layer toolbar.
    Any ideas? You are appreciated!
    Should all be thick black lines around each housing lot, but this is what I keep getting.
    Thanks

    Should all be thick black lines around each housing lot, but this is what I keep getting.
    Then you should not have applied the Vector Mask to the Layer.

    I tried this code for photoshop CC and CC 2014, it works for both but I couldn't get it to run for cs6 it gives the below error from the extension manager:
    so isn't Version="[13.0,15.9]" correct? why would it not work for cs6? thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    CS6 doesn't support HTML Panels but Flash ones, this should be the why the Adobe Extension Manager fails.
    You might find help here (Flash): Creative Suite Extension Builder and here (HTML): Extension Builder 3

  • Lighting Effect not work in CS6*

    Why Filter/ Render/ Lighting Effect not work in CS6?
    It's not work only in CS6 Beta or in anything else :-/. It's Useful with me

    A bit more information would be helpful.  What is happening on your system when you go to  lighting effects?
    What system are you running on? What video card are you using? Are you using the most recent driver?
    Do check our system FAQ as GPU is requried for lignting effects to work properly.
    FAQ: What features use the GPU and how do I troubleshoot GPU issues?

    This is a new one on me.
    It's a server program to interface with QuickTime and some other problematic services.
    If you use video or 3D in Photoshop Extended, you probably need it.
    Sounds like you are correct in that it has to do wtih Quicktime.  Do you have PS extended?

  • Help! Built in features/hints not working flash cs6. Need fix ASAP

    Loads of built in features are not working for me in Flash CS6. When I was using CS4 they did, now they aren't. I will give two examples. Say for example I am writing code in the actions window and I type "green_btn." in regards to the name of a button instance, what usually happens when I hit the "." immediately after "green_btn" a menu will pop up showing me every option I can pick, like green_btn.addEventListener() etc etc. There is usually a menu that comes up, but for me there is no menu. I have also created a button symbol, placed an instance of it on the stage, named the instance and tried it again (cs6 is supposed to recognize the "_btn" automatically and make the menu come up even if there is no button created, but I decided to create one just in case), and no menu pops up, still . Something is wrong here, it used to work for me when I had CS4 installed. Another example is if I am in the actions window again, and I type in a function like trace(); for example, you are supposed to be able to put your cursor infront of it, or highlight it and hit F1 and it will take you directly to the help page for that function. This does not happen as well. As I go on and on I seem to keep stumbling across all these built in features for convenience that are not working. And I know 100% that they are supposed to be, I am actually in a class right now for flash and I watch demo videos where it works perfectly. What is going on with mine? I have checked every possible preference and option, I have everything and I mean EVERYTHING up to date with the most current versions. I'm stuck, and I am getting really pissed off to be blunt, I need to fix this ASAP because it is going to affect my studies which are currently ongoing, I have deadlines to  meet and I am dicking around trying to fix this. PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME! Any suggestions and solution will be greatly appreciated on my behalf. If anyone helps me fix this I'll kiss you!!!!!!!!

    I increased the cache from 800 to 5000, is that sufficient?
    The .fla is saved to my harddrive
    still no code hinting. I also unchecked and rechecked the code hinting, and even did a reboot on my comp and still nothing.
    everything is updated, EVERYTHING, to the most current version available. I updated everything possible through the "Adobe Help Manager" and also through the help menu within the programs themselves; Help->Updates. I made slight progress with the help issue, in general settings withing the "Adobe Help Manager" I changed it to display local help only. So now when I initiate help by either right clicking, and then going to "view help" in the pop-up menu, or by hitting "FN+F1" (hp laptop) it brings up the flash_reference.pdf but it does not go directly to the function selected as it's supposed to. So maybe that isn't even progress...
    I watched the demo video for the course I am in, and it shows our instructor put the cursor immediately infront of trace(); (within the actions window) and go to help and it goes directly to the help section on trace, and then he also highlights trace(); and goes to view help and it does the same thing.
    I am also in touch with him (its an online course) to see if he can figure out it, and I am still waiting to hear back from him, but no one seems to know. I even contacted ADOBE today and got passed on to 3 different people only to be given the toll free 800 number because no one knows how to fix it.

  • Blending modes not working in CS6

    High everybody, i am working in cs6 and starting to frustrate more and more, tried everything and nothing seems to work. Layer blending modes just seems to stop working at one moment, or at certain layers, i dont know. I have two layers one on top of other, and when i set blending mode on top layer everything just goes white, I will post screenshot of my ps, so if anybody can help me pls.. Thanks!
    .

    I wanted to do some quick tutorial and this is the one i chose to kill boredom... http://psd.tutsplus.com/tutorials/designing-tutorials/creating-a-cool-3d-web-design-effect / (step 10) if you have time look into it.
    The guy copies white rectangular background layer with radial gradient fx (dark red) on top, disables gradient and applies pattern overlay fx with overlay blend mode, so he just inserts pattern onto header layer and result is header with radial gradient and pattern, i know what you are saying and probably know how to do it some other way, but i am really buged how he did it, is it because he worked in older v. of ps?
    p.s. this means then that in order for pattern overlay fx to work in overlay blend mode - shapes must have color (not working when colored with #fff or #000) - right?
    Thanx

  • Shortcut not working in cs6

    The keyboard shortcut command - h does not work. But it does from the menu bar drop down under Dreamweaver. On a mac 10.7.4

    I can confirm that Cmd+H doesn't work in DW CS6 on a Mac. However, Cmd+Q works every time for me.
    When you find what you think is a bug (and Cmd+H is definitely a bug), the best place to report it is through the bug report/feature request form at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform.

  • Brushes not working in CS6

    I just installed the Student and Teacher edition of CS6 Design and Web Premium. I am having a major issue with Photoshop--my brushes are not working. Smooth airbrushes are appearing with spattered edges (I do not have noise turned on or any other adjustments made), and the erodable brushes are not working at all. Everything else within CS and Photoshop seems to be working fine.
    Can anyone suggest a solution?

    FierceWraps if I had to guess I'd say you targeted a Layer Mask and painted black on it with a somewhat soft brush, so transparency is showing through the layer.
    If that's not what happened, perhaps a full screen grab showing everything (Layers panel especially) could be helpful.

  • ComputeSpectrum not working in CS6

    I use computeSpectrum in many CS5.5 Flash applications. I just installed CS6 and when I compile the same file the byte array sent back by computeSpectrum is mostly empty.
    Seems to be a bug in the built player 11. I downgraded toi 10.3 and it still doesn't work. Funny, 10.2 is not available in CS6 and that's the highest one I have in CS5.5
    Is the built player the problem? Any idea when a fix will be available?
    Thanks

    Hi klag,
    Just using the example code from Adobe on-line help does it.
    In CS5.5, as long as there is sound, computeSpectrum returns a byte array with data most times enterFrame updates it. In CS 6 the byte array is most often empty causing the visual to stay flat when it shouldn't.
    Here is the code from Adobe as found here : http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/media/SoundMixer. html#computeSpectrum()
    If you run that code in 5.5 then in 6 you'll see a big difference. I use computeSpectrum to mimicate speech and that difference cause the mouth to stay close most of the time.

  • Using AS Linkage name for embedded font not working in CS6

    "Myriad Pro" with bold and italic styles embedded with the linkage names "Body", "BodyBold" and "BodyItalic".
    Creating a TextField using Flash CS6's toolbar and setting its font to "Body*" works fine, but not when its htmlText value has <b> and <em>, etc, tags.
    This also does not work:
    style.setStyle(".something", {fontFamily:"BodyBold"});
    ... but this does:
    style.setStyle(".something", {fontFamily:"Myriad Pro Bold"});
    Using the AS Linkage name worked in prior versions. I like using them because I can change global fonts for "stage" elements.

    Is there a list of Microsoft Fonts that will work with Pages?
    Are you actually seeing a noticeable difference in the fonts after conversion? While there are some difference between those fonts, they are very subtle differences and in all likelihood will not really change the look of the document.
