Can't adjust anchor points of path when keyframes enabled...

I have an irregular shape layer that I'm warping over time (smaller to bigger). I'm able to adjust the anchor points of the path to the shapes I want—but once I set the two keyframes of the path that I'm interpolating with a slider, I am no longer able to adjust the anchor points to do minor tweaks e.g. I'm unable to pull out the bezier handles. If I disable the keyframes then I'm allowed to adjust the anchors again but that means I have to start over every time I need to make an adjustment. I've successfully executed the concept but need to tweak multiple shape layers in this fashion and not having access to the anchor point bezier handles is slowing down productivity.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Chris

As I said before, and if you look closely I have keyframes on the paths, you have to carefully roll over the right parts of your path and make sure that the path is selected and not the shape. It takes a bit of getting used to. You are probably selecting the entire path. If you press the U key twice to reveal the path and the keyframes, select the path, press the G key to select the pen tool, then roll the pen tool over the path you'll see a pen with a plus appear. move off the path and hold down the Ctrl/Cmnd key and you'll see a white arrow. Click and drag around a vertex and now you have selected a single vertex complete with the handles.
You can also do this with the selection tool (V) but the procedure is not exactly the same and I think a little more difficult. If the entire path is selected then you cannot select an individual point, but if you hold down the Cmnd/Ctrl key and move off the path you'll see the cursor change to a white arrow. Click off the path, then you can click on a vertex and get your controls back. I much prefer using the pen tool because it allows me to draw around multiple points and transform them quickly,  gives me more options though the modifier keys of Alt/Option or Ctrl/Cmnd to change the tools and generally work much faster, but you can use either one.

  • [newbie] Sharing anchor points across paths/shapes? + Pen visual feedback? + Show all paths?

    Hey all, as stated I'm a newbie at Illustrator. Any help's appreciated. My questions:
    1) Is it possible to have anchor points be part of more than 1 path? I want to have 2 adjacent filled paths that share anchor points, so that if I move the common edge anchors, both shapes are affected. Kinda like in Flash, I suppose.
    My guess is this is impossible though? Then how do people working with Illustrator a lot tackle this problem? I mean adjusting 2 shapes with several common anchor points (not shared, just in the same position), for adjacent shapes.
    2) Is it possible to set the Pen tool to give visual feedback like in Photoshop when moving the mouse to a new position to add a new anchor point? What Photoshop does is show the path segment that would be created if you were to click at the current mouse position, whenever you move the mouse. Illustrator doesn't show this with me right now, so I'm left to guess what the exact path segment will look like when I click (less convenient imo).
    3) Is there a way to always show all paths on the current layer, even if they are not selected? And I do NOT mean Outline mode, I'm aware of that. The problem I'm facing is that - when working with multiple paths - I want to see them all when adding a new path, so I can easily align anchor points and what not with the other paths, but I do NOT want to hide the image I'm tracing (which would happend in Outline mode).
    Thanks in advance.
    Victor

    You might get what you re after using Live Paint. Here I have drawn an oval and a wavy line — two paths. After converting to a Live Paint object I can selectively fill and stroke any closed area or and segment.
    No.
    Put the object or image you are tracing on a Template layer. Or Command (Mac) or Control (Windows) click on the eye next to a layer name to change only that layer’s view mode.

  • Anchor points and paths not displaying!

    When I create a new shape, the anchor points and path are not visible. How do I make them appear? I don't see them at all in any shape I create....

    Hi JJMAck,
    The problem isn't with selecting a path or anchor point, but rather seeing them at all. I watched a tutorial video, where the user chose the rectangle shape tool, created a rectangle, and the path and anchor points of the rectangle were visible. When I create a rectangle, no path or anchor points are displayed.....
    Any thoughts on that situation?
    Thanks!!
    John
    What you saw in the tutorials is how newer versions of Photoshop work older Photoshop versions do not display the points and the way shape layer are depicted in the layers palette is also different.
    What version of Photoshop are you using?
    While CS6 is close to CC it does not show the points and there may even be differences between the PC and Mac versions of Photoshop.

  • AE CS5 - Shape Layer - Anchor point moves after position keyframe

    I am experiencing unintuitive (to me) behaviour with a brand new shape layer. Here are the steps to reproduce the issue. I have made a screen cap of the problem but can't figure out how to upload it to this forum.
    1. In an existing composition, I create a new Shape Layer
    2. By default the anchor point (center point) is in the dead center of the shape layer. Perfect.
    3. I turn on Position keyframing, and add a position keyframe at my current time
    4. Instantly the anchor point now jumps to the center of the composition, and so now when I scale my shape layer it doesn't scale properly
    If I try to use the Pan Behind tool, I get position keyframing. Besides, I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THIS, since the anchor point was in the correct spot to start with, and it's only because of this keyframing "bug" that the anchor point jumps.
    What am I missing or doing wrong? How can I add a position keyframe to a BRAND NEW LAYER that has no other animation on it, and still keep the anchor point in the dead center of my shape?
    Thanks for your advice,
    Tom

    Thanks to Rick and Mylenium for your helpful answers. Rick, I'd prefer not to have to manually reposition, because I'm never going to be as mathematically precise as the software for positioning the Anchor Point dead center.
    Using the transform controls on the shape rather than the global container certainly did the trick! You guys are great. Thanks.

    In my defense as far as the constant exhortations to "RTFM", we all know that most veteran software users only go to the manual when there's a problem. You also know that Adobe's help system (particluarly in regards to search) has gotten worse over the years, not better. So when I run into a situation like this, I'm going to search through the help for what I believe the problem is: namely "anchor points", "transformations" and "keyframes", and maybe "shape layers". This is a fair amount of research, and it's exactly what I do as my first line of defense.
    The second line of defense that most tech savvy folk do, is a Google search; for example: "anchor point moves after position keyframe" or "After Effects shapes layer anchor point moves keyframe" etc. And you spend your time sifting through forums trying to find the relevant answers. I feel that THAT is my true due diligence, rather than reading the F'n Adobe manual that is so very very sparse.
    So after my due diligence, I turn to the experts communities, because there I know I will get educated, reliable help within a reasonable turnaround time. And because I myself contribute to these same forums in areas where I have higher than average expertise. The Adobe Forums have proven to be one of the great online resources.
    Finally, now that I have a great answer from two knowledgeable experts (thanks again!), I've also enriched the community, because of the way I have crafted my post title, hopefully the next poor ******* who has a similar problem and a similar methodology to finding resolution will stubmle upon my post because I've tried to overload the title with relevant keywords that will generate hits in google.
    Through my question, and your accurate answers, the global knowledgebase has improved.
    So forgive me for not memorizing the F'n Adobe online help. I go to the resources that are the most useful, expedient, and provide the greatest value as a whole.

  • Tools related to anchor points are not working, can't add a point to paths or convert a point.

    Having a lot of issues manipulating points on paths in Illustrator CC - this is a fundamental feature of creating vector graphics and it's very annoying I'm paying for this and it's just not working. Eating up a lot of my time simply because I can't select or convert or add the anchor.

    bella,
    Presuming we are not just talking about more or less hidden Anchor Points as in View>Show/Hide Edges/Bounding Box, you may try to start on the following list (5) seems unlikely in this case).
    You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder Other options (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

  • Can't select anchor points of some shapes in Photoshop CC 2014

    I have a multi-layered file with a number of shape objects. When I go to the direct selection tool and try to click on an anchor point the points simply do not show up. Is there some property that I am not aware of that prevents selection?

    Can you upload the psd file.  The Path palette shows a very small triangle path on the right edge of the canvas up some from the bottom of the document. With the direct path tool active and the shape layer targeted even if no point is selected I would expect the see the path outline shown in the Path Palette for the shape layer to be shown in the image window also I see none. Can you see the path outline? Are you  on a Mac I'm on a PC using cc2014 with todays update

  • How can I use anchor points in Photoshop CC?

    I'm using a trial version of Photoshop CC and I am trying to put a formed border around some text. I was able to do this with my other Photoshop program with manipulating anchor points. The CC version is layed out differently. How can I use and form anchor points?

    Hi Sheryl.  I must admit, I looked at your post earlier, and it was too obscure to get a handle on (did I really just say 'handle'? ).  But I think I can see where you are coming from now.  Yes, the manipulation of paths has changed a wee bit with CC, but it is pretty intuitive, and a lot of it will still work fine using your old methodology.
    Take a look at some of these Julieanne Kost blog posts
    https://blogs.adobe.com/jkost/tag/path-selection-tool
    I find the most reliable way to make individual point selection work first time every time, is to select the Direct Selection tool > and with the shape/path layer selected, drag a tiny marquee around your target point.  You can then click drag that point to edit the shape or path.
    But there are so many ways to do the sort of thing you are talking about.  If you make a copy of the text layer, and make the lower of the two in the layer stack bigger (Free Transform with Alt Shift) you can then turn that lower text layer into a path or shape to manipulate it.
    Or you could add a broad stroke around the text on a new layer.  Ctrl click the stroke to load it as a selection, and turn the selection into a path using the icon at the bottom of the Paths panel, and then manipulate its points.  If you want to make the stroke a solid filled layer, then I don't know of a better way than dragging a marquee around the inner points wth Direct Selection tool, and hitting Delete.
    It's an interesting subject, so please keep asking about anything you are not sure about.

  • How can I adjust the font size, etc., when completing a PDF form in Preview?

    I would like to use Preview to fill-out or complete a PDF form.  The default font that Preview uses when I begin typing in a field is too large.  How can I adjust the font size.  And while I'm asking, can I also adjust the font color, weight, emphasis, etc.?

    Whilst in the Preview application, press "Shift - Command - A" (⇧⌘A) simultaneously to show the markup toolbar, or click View, and select "show markup toolbar". There is an icon "A" near the right hand side of the now visible markup toolbar, click this icon to reveal all the font options. 

  • How can I snap anchor points to grid?

    I am trying to snap anchor points to the grid so I don't have to eye-ball the curves. Is there a way that I can do this?

    Luke,
    How about View>Snap to Grid?

  • Help! I can't delete anchor points with the Delete Anchor Point Tool

    I have a shape in illustrator CS6 that I'm trying to edit. When I try to click on a point with the Delete Anchor Point Tool nothing happens however I am able to select the point using the Direct Selection Tool and then remove it using the "Remove selected anchor points" option in the Control palette. Same issue with trying to use the Convert Anchor Point Tool.
    Any ideas what's going wrong here?

    Another thought. If there are multiple nodes in that one spot, you may have to use the remove anchor point repeatedly to get rid of them all. It looks like you deleted the point and nothing happens, but really you are just seeing another node that was very close to the one you just deleted.
    If you select drag over them with the white arrow tool and choose remove anchor points it will remove them all at once.

  • Can't adjust the default time scale when creating a new appointment in Outlook 2010

    Good Afternoon, I have found a question on these community boards that propose an issue that I am currently experiencing. The answer; however, was not the solution for me. I used the same name as the original post and will add the original text as it is
    exactly what I am experiencing.
    "When creating a new appointment in the month view Outlook 2010, the default time scale or duration is 2 days.  I tried resetting the view, adjusting the time scale, and creating a new profile.  It only seems to happen when creating the appointment
    in the Month view.  ???  Day and week view work fine and appointment can be created w the standard 30 minute time scale.  But the time scale in the month view although says 30 mins, it creates appointments in 2 day durations."
    This is exactly what happens to the user I am assisting. When in "month view" double clicking the day will bring up a new appointment with the times within the same day. If you click the "new appointment" button in the ribbon it
    sets the end time to the following day. This only happens in the month view every other view works as it normally should. I have tried it several times being sure multiple days are not selected. It still gives me an end time for the following day. I have reset
    the view, changed the time scale but nothing seems to bring it back to the default same day appointment. Any ideas?
    Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

    It is a default in Outlook 2010 in month view.  The "time scale" selection is greyed out.  Very frustrating.  Everytime I select "New Appointment," a duration of 1 day is automatically selected; midnight to midnight.  I end up doing
    most appointments twice because I forget to change to end date back to the day of the appointment.  "New meeting Request" works fine.  So does "New All Day Event" when you deselect "All Day Event."  I can't see how this default behavior
    provides optimal results under any circumstances.  Very frustrating.

  • Can you adjust track lengths of livetype when in FCE?

    Was wondering if it is possible to adjust the duration of a livetype track (.ipr file) in FCE without going back and editing the original .ipr file in livetype. There is no animation, it is just a straight text track. Seems like that would be a simple thing to do, since you can do it with tiff images and photoshop files.

    Have you tried using the *Ripple Tool* (RR) in the timeline to adjust its duration? That should work for the file as a whole. If you want to adjust particular layers within the LiveType file you have to go back and edit it in the application.

  • Please use the convert anchor point tool on an anchor point of path

    whenever i try to pull out a path i get this error
    i'm new to illustrator

    Hello,
    Could you please check if you do not have 'Snap to Grid' turned ON and 'Snap to Point' unchecked in the View menu? If yes, please turn ON 'Snap to Point' or uncheck both. Please let me know your observation.
    Regards,
    Dhirendra

  • Can you adjust the point at which the Battery Alert 'dismiss' appears?

    I'm sure I'm seen where you can reduce that percentage, such as 10%.  Or is it not something with a custom setting?

    Nope, can't do it there, either. Sorry.

  • Can't select items, keeps showing paths and anchor points

    All of a sudden when I roll over a selection the cursor displays anchor points and paths only. Any ideas?

    Perhaps you have Smart Guides turned on.
    Try Cmd+U to turn them off, and see how it goes.
