Adding stroke changes shape, why???

I'm trying to add a strock to a shape, and when I do it shifts the shape down and to the left, and moves some of its anchor points.
I can't figure out why this is happening or how to stop it.  Has anyone here experienced this? 

Its unchecked and the behaviour persists.  Here is what it looks like:
Notice how some anchors points are the same (like in the curve of the thumb), while others are not (like the bottom right buldge on the palm).
The pixel grid idea makes sense, but the deselecting it does change the resutls.

  • VECTORS USED WITH IN SYMBOLS CHANGE SHAPE WHY?

    I am Designing some shoe boxes at work and applying simple brand logo's to them. I've created a 3-D drawing
    of it and then made each side of the shoe box and turned them into a symbol so I can map art them in the 3D
    effect mode but I have noticed as soon as I make each side as a symbol the vectors slighty change shape i.e letters
    become thicker or thinner but not in a perspective way! How can I prevent this from happening?

    Have you converted the text to outlines? Could either be something with a stroke being to thin and showing up when deformed or, if based on dynamic text, some re-rendering of the type going on when it better shouldn't...

  • Why the mouse pointer in Logic Pro does not change shape during work in OSX 10.9.1?

    I've a MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch Late 2013 and I'm using two external displays. One connected to to the HDMI port (display 1) the other to thunderbolt (display 2). The MacBook display is closed. I’m working with Logic Pro 9.1.8 (32bit) with OSX 10.9.1
    Why the mouse pointer in Logic Pro does not change shape during work???
    It was already difficult with OSX 10.9 but now after upgrading to 10.9.1 it's game over!
    At least before I could select which display use Logic Pro to have all the shape functions of the pointer. Not in both displays, so to be forced to edit in ONLY ONE of the two displays using this workaround: (right click on Logic icon in Dock: Option --> Desktop on Display 1). Now or I select “Option --> All Desktops” or does not work. However, by selecting all displays you say goodbye to Mission Control. This can’t be a solution!!!
    The amazing thing is that Nuendo has no problem while Logic Pro, Apple's native software, it can't!
    With Nuendo it’s indifferent in which display you are working, the shape of the mouse pointer changes shape depending on the requirement in both displays.
    This thing drives me crazy!
    Solutions?
    Here some ideas in other foums:
    http://www.logicprohelp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=86264
    But this aren't really solutions but workarounds. Use Logic in all desktops makes Mission Control useless!!

    I installed all over again by formatting as suggested by the genes of pro application support. Each plug-in, each virtual instrument, a job that lasted 3 days. And as suggested for each new plug-in I proceeded to check the proper functioning of Logic Pro and did each time a back up with Time Machine.
    The Result:
    Logic works as it should ONLY on the primary monitor and ONLY on the first desktop.
    BUT
    Reason and Nuendo dont' have this issue !!
    I believe that Apple developers are thinking only to mobile phones and things like messages or face time.
    And that's not all!
    After a few weeks, perhaps by installing a version of Adobe Acrobat, I say maybe because I'm not sure, logic has stopped working properly. Again problems with the mouse pointer.
    Luckily I had a back up! But now I'm terrified to install new programs. Thanks Apple!

  • Why did my strokes change back to uniform after I used livepaint?  Now I can't even figure out how to change them back.  Any suggestions?

    I created an image and tried to color it using livepaint.  Afterwards, my strokes changed back to uniform in appearance and I can't change them back.  Why?  Or any suggestions on what I might try?

    LIvepaint can only work with standard strokes.
    If you want to color something that uses brush strokes or variable width you need to first expand it (object > expand appearance)

  • Just updated to Mavericks. Cursor changes shape strangely. Any idea why?

    I run a new MacBook Air, only a few months old. 13 inch model. I just updated to OS X Mavericks a few minutes ago and I notice my cursor keeps changing shape. For example, when I go to the App Store, the cursor, normally an arrow, will randomly turn into a pointer finger like when you hover over a clickable thing there, but even after I move away, it remains a finger. Then recently, I was going to my About This Mac option under the Apple in the top bar and it turned into the little vertical line like it would become on a text box and it remained that way until I moved to a different program. I guess this isn't more than a nuisance, but a nuisance it is and I wonder if anyone else has had such a problem.

    Me too. Actually since Mountain Lion on a mid-2009 MacBook Pro 13in. 8GB RAM, upgraded flash drive.
    Arbitrary cursor behavior. Should be a hand or and arrow, but stays stuck as an i-bar. More than annoying. Makes me use Chrome when I don't want to. Now it is popping up in Mail.
    Any ideas?

  • Changing Shape Color

    I'm new to Keynote - I looked in the guides and searched the forums but didn't come up with much. I'm trying to do something very basic. I drew an arrow timeline, and it came with it's default color which i want to change. For the life of me I can't figure this out. How do I change a shapes color, can anyone offer guidance? I made it editable but still no joy, and nothing in the guide apart from adding a custom shape which seems odd...
    any help would be appreciated

    Welcome to the discussions, fiveyardpass.
    Select the shape you want to change the color of, open the inspector (Click on the blue circle with an "i" in it), then click on the Graphic tab (the one with the square and the circle on it). Under "Fill" click on "Image Fill" and choose "Color Fill". Then, if you click on the color swatch, it'll open the color palette.

  • Dvi to video adapter changes shape

    When I plug my DVI to Video adapter into my macbook pro, all of the displays change shape, and no matter what resolution I choose, it won't go back to it's true size.   When I try a DVI to vga adapter, it works fine.

    Try starting the Mac in Safe mode.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
    Hopefully that will result in a usable screen. If it does, go into Displays Preferences and change the resolution to what it was when you had things working properly before. Then restart normally and the resolution selection made under Safe mode should persist through the normal restart.

  • In Pages I used to be able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file".

    In Pages, In the past, I was able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file". And I can no longer open the actual template, when template is clicked, it automaticaly opens an "untitled" version???

    In your description you say the first document opens as the Title you gave it.
    Templates always open as Untitled so it sounds like you have saved a regular document, perhaps into your templates folder which is possible.
    Since you have already worked on it and it has been previously saved, Lion will now Save for you and Save a Version is available
    The other document does open as Untitled so sounds like a real template and as Peggy has pointed out will not have either Revert nor Save a Version until you Save it and have changed something in it.
    This is a classic example of just how Apple's supposedly "simplification" of the process, is leading to confusion of what has happened. That the conditions and resulting actions from those conditions is so convoluted says it all.
    It all reminds me of the Monty Python Life of Brian sketch with the "simplified" John Cleese instructions to the class, as to if you have a brother in an older dorm whether to hang your hat and bag on the hooks provided. The trouble is Apple does not get the joke, that it is transforming itself into a frequently self contradictory bumbling bureacracy. The price of unchallenged self appointed geniushood.
    The incoherent half baked stumbling juggernaut has reached new triumphs with its edict on enforced Sandboxing on developers when it is unable to follow even its own instructions.

  • No matter how many times I start itunes on my pc I have to agree to the terms of service gain and when it does open my settings have all been changed.  why is it doing this and how can I satop it?  reinstalling does not fix it.

    No matter how many times I start itunes on my pc I have to agree to the terms of service again and when it does open my settings have all been changed.  Why is it doing this and how can I stop it?  Reinstalling/repairing does not fix it.

    McAfee AntiVirus by any chance? See the thread Why does iTunes delete my itunesprefs.xml?
    Or it could be an issue with the SC Info folder. See TS1277 - iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization for details.
    Or a repair install of iTunes from the Programs and Features control panel might fix the problem.

    I've checked the resolution in Photoshop just as a double-check and it shows resolution as 300 PPI. When you say "because they can be mixed" do you mean because elements and graphics with the PDF can be of varying resolutions? I hadn't thought of that, if that's what you meant. I do have some items within my pdf that might be lower resolution.
    If these show up in my Preflight Panel as an issue, does this mean they would be flagged also with the Printer? In trying to find a resolution I read several forum discussions about how Printers often run your document through a Preflight process and will send it back when there are low resolution images in the document.
    Is there some other way to be sure these images are in the InDesign document as 300 PPI so I can know they will in fact print correctly?
    PS - Peter - thanks for the super quick response! And I saw your the highlighted "Exceptional Contributor" on the right sidebar for the InDesign forum - clearly well-deserved! Congrats

  • How do I make a user shaped vignette move and change shape in Color

    I  want to isolate an irregular shaped area on screen by creating a vignette linked to a shape. The trouble is as the shape I want to isolate moves across the screen it changes size, orientation and shape. I know I can use keyframes when I'm using a round or square vignette but how can I track/keyframe a user defined shape?
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Actually, I've sort of answered my own question. I've found out that having created a shape in the geometry room and attached it to a secondary correction tab, you can make the shape change shape, position and size. What you must do is to stay in the geometry room with the shape selected and then create key frames. At each keyframe you can alter the position of the points defining the shape. You can't however morph between different defined shapes.
    Hope that makes sense!

    Sorry about that. I am not exactly sure where the problem is, but I know it takes place after I put the <nav> in (in the html portion). If I understand what I am learning, the CSS at the top will structure my html code so I would have thought the CSS tageting my nav would be the focus. Maybe it is a different section though.
    CSS part:
    nav p {
    font-size: 90%;
    color: #FFC;
    text-align: right;
    font-weight: bold;
    background-color: #090;
    padding-top: 5px;
    padding-right: 20px;
    padding-bottom: 5px;
    border-top-width: 2px;
    border-top-style: solid;
    border-top-color: #060;

  • Image Pattern Recognition (slightly changing shapes)

    Hello all, I wrote a program for my work which calculates zonal windshear through a series of images (over time) showing storms traveling. The user clicks center points of the storm he/she is tracking and it uses deltas of time/distance (with longitude/latitude) to calculate the wind speed. My boss would like this to be automated using some kind of autocorrelation technique where a storm is chosen once and the program finds it in successive images. Now, the problem is here that the storms change shape slightly, but overall are still recognizable so pixel by pixel searching does not seem to be an option (tried with a matching tolerance of less than 60%, everything went terribly). I looked into the JAI but could not find anything to help with my problem. One thing that gives me hope, is that these storms travel zonally only, so I only need to scan across horizontally in the image (saturn images at 5 microns). So, can anyone guide me into something to research? I would greatly appreciate any advice and by the way these images are all grayscale.

    Hmm.. I'm a bit confused.  I thought that when you convert a
    selection to a path, the new path follows the exact location of the
    selection. (Therefore conversion from the selection bounds to the path
    should be pixel exact)
    Nope. Wand some part of a photograph and zoom in to %1600. Then make the selection a workpath with various tolerance levels. At 0.5 you get a very good approximation, but converting between bitmap graphics and vector graphics will never be pixel perfect.
    What I don't know how to do (if it's even possible) is program
    Photoshop using scripts to alter each and every pixel on the path using
    an algorithm similar to what you described.
    You can use the Path APIs in PS to describe as many points on a path as you need.
    BTW, when you ".. skip it and check the next point on the path" what
    path are we talking about (we just rejected a test point on the current
    path because it was out of alignment).  The new path hasn't even been
    defined yet.  Even if you used the next point on a tangent to the
    previous two points as the new path, what's to say that that tangent
    will meet up with the correct portion of the path?
    A better way of looking at the this is that you traverse the path. If the next point is way out of whack, delete it and check the next point. If the border defects aren't too large, you eventually find a point that is near enough that you can discard/delete the intermediate points, though you do end up with a small flat part on the circle.
    NetGeek888, has an interesting idea (see my commet to his post)
    If you are going to have a user tweaking the selection, I'd take the bounds of the initial wand selection, as he suggests, create a circle in those bounds, and let the user adjust the circle's size and location.
    You probably need to start coding some of these ideas up and see what's reasonable for your workflow.

Maybe you are looking for
