Drawing outline Disappears? (CS5)

Hi, I just upgraded from Flash CS3 to CS5 and when I draw something and try to convert it to a movie clip, duplicate it, etc. the entire drawing's outline just disappears. Am I doing something wrong? Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

Possibly (CS5 has a new/different file format), but it shouldn't. Is it just that one instance (the chicken?)
If you still have CS3, maybe pasting that one instance into a new document in CS3 would work. If not, if you can save it in a new CS5 document I could save it back to CS3 and then resave to CS5 and try reproducing. Not sure if that would work, as I'm not an expert in that area of the product (file format change).

When cropping a pattern solid designs are visible but outlines disappear?

I have just started designing patterns in illustrator. I have designed a couple with no problems cropping in the end. But I have had trouble with a couple. And today I figured out that the parts of the patters that do not have solid filled colors are fine ... but after I crop the parts of the flowers that are just outlines disappear. As you can see I hardly know enough about all of this to maybe even properly ask this question.
For example my current pattern has solid flower and flower outlines. Once I crop the solid flowers are there but the outlines disappear. And I have nothing grouped or locked. I followed seamless pattern instructions I found online.
Hopefully there is someone out there that has a simple solution for me. I would appreciate the help!
Thank you

photojnki,
Cropping removes the stroke. If you click the hollow Stroke square near the bottom of the Toolbox and then click Color below it to the left, you should be able to restore the stroke of whatever is selected, either the whole group or, if DirectSelected, the individual path(s) desired. You can see what is selected in the Layers palette.

CS4 + CS5 Brush CURSOR outline disappear when increase the brush size

Hi
In Photoshop CS4 and CS5, the outline of the brush cursor starts to disappear when you increase the brush size.
It's OK under 65px in diameter and it's start to disappear over 66px. In 438px the outline is a single dot and over 439px the cursor outline is completely gone!
I read that it's caused by the old drivers for the video card. I'm using GeForce 8800GT and I updated the driver with the latest version form the nVidia web site. The problem is still here!
HELP?

I'm seeing a bit of a pattern of multiple people reporting problems with nVidia 8800 cards. I'm thinking nVidia isn't testing new drivers against this particular model very intensively. See my comments on video cards and drivers in this thread:

Lines not drawing precisly on cs5 and wacom

Anyone know what could be the problem, set up a new system, with my wacom intuous 4, and i have never had a problem before, but on both illustrator and photoshop i cant seem to get a decent curve drawn, As soon as my pen starts a line it seems to be "thinking" and makes the first 10mm straight and thn a curve. Also if i hold my pen to the wacom tablet for longer than 2 seconds it starts thinking and sets up the pen tools drop box. Please help.
I have uninstalled all programs, and reinstalled them, with no joy.

Try Google, but be ready to dodge the rush of hits it brings up. I don't know if there was ever a fix for CS5 and Lion, but I can tell you something that will let you get beautifully smooth and flowing lines; cure the dreaded shoelace problem (thos nasty blobby bits at the end of a tapered line, and let you make incredibly long tapered start _and_ ends to your pressure sensitive lines.
Plus you get the bonus of a dozen or so line drawing constraints, and a a bunch of presets. It's called Lazy Nezumi Pro, and no tablet user should be without it.

Drawing/outline/stroke

i'm wondering if there is
a way to have an effect similar to a "stroke"
which i can apply to a drawing which was
originally made in photoshop with the paintbrush
tool.
In other words, I've imported my drawing into after effects...(.Lets say it's an outlined picture of a house.)....and now i want to create an animated path similaar to one which the stroke tool allows when outllining a mask, but because there is no mask to outline, how can i go about this? Is there a quick solution?
Any suggestins will be geatly appreciated; thanks....

Is there a quick solution?
Sorry, no quick one.
I'd go back to Photoshop, think long and hard about how I wanted to animate this, put each line to be animated on its own layer and import the revised Photoshop document as a comp. Then I'd animate masks on each layer to reveal the lines.

HELP! OpenGL Drawing Disabled in CS5...

I'm running dual Nvidia Gefore 8800 GTs w/ SLI enabled on a Windows 7 32 bit machine. The checkbox to enable OpenGL drawing is disabled (as is the advanced option button), and where it says "Detected Video Card:" it's just blank. I should note - Photoshop CS4 was working just fine with OpenGL Drawing enabled and full GPU acceleration. The Adobe drivers documentation states that the 8800 GT is fully supported for CS5...
I've scoured the support forums on both Nvidia and Adobe and no one seems to be able to answer this. Yep - I'm running the latest Nvidia drivers (v. 258.96), I've uninstalled and reinstalled CS5, and totally cleaned my registry.
I'm aware of the option to download the test tools from Adobe and force hardware emulation mode to get the OpenGL options to work, but that's really not a solution in my opinion. That's basically bypassing the acceleration I should be getting from Nvidia. It's pretty clearly stated on the download page that Adobe doesn't recommend it as a solution either.
Is anyone else having this issue? I'm incredibly frustrated and would greatly appreciate any/all information anyone has...

My video cards are dual GeForce 8800 GTs w/ SLI. According to Nvidia and Adobe's documentation, they are fully capable of driving Photoshop CS5. I run ZBrush, SoftImage, Blender, and a slew of other much more graphically intensive apps with no issues.
I installed the latest version of the Nvidia drivers; after that didn't work, I ran the latest beta drivers, which also didn't work. There's got to be a fix from either Nvidia or Adobe for this. The cards are fully capable and are listed in the index of supported cards on Adobe's site.

Flash drawing (outline) insights

Does anyone have some insights on exporting vector drawings
on Flash?
I wanted to produce beautiful 256 color bitmaps like the
character flo in the Diner Dash series, but I haven't found any
luck. My bitmap is more jaggy and the outlines look terribly bold.
When zoomed-in, it looks even more jaggy. On the other hand, flo
and other DinerDash's assets look very good when zoomed-in.
There is somehow should be a trick to produce such quality
drawing. Or, perhaps Playfirst creates DinerDash assets using other
drawing softwares? I've heard about Fireworks but have never tried
it.
Thank you,
YHJ

Must be the way you export them. Try exporting to PNG and
then process that PNG
is some other application.

Table outlines disappeared

Hi
Maybe i've missed something in this new version of Pages. I have several documents setup with Tables, created in the previous version of Pages. Since upgrading the Tables seem to have lost their grid lines. The outline box is still there to denote there was something there but the grid has gone.
Does anybody know how to re-show them?
Thanks
Kiran

Kiran,
What in Pages 4 was split between the Table Inspector and the Graphics Inspector is now in Version 5 split between Format > Table (Table Border and Table Grid) and Format > Cell (Cell Border controls). Table Fill was lost, Grid control was gained, I think, but I don't profess to fully understand Grid Controls yet.

CS5.1 Missing fonts - converted to outline

Hello, I have PC with Adobe Master Suite CS5.5 installed.
Problem:
I had to open eps file, where is font Obelix Far East, which I don't have and needs to be replaced to Myriard.
When I open this eps, all Obelix's words are automaticaly converted to outlines.
original:
CS5.5 - immedatelly after opening:
Is any way to prevent convert words? I can see it first time, because before CS5.5 I used only CS4 and there was no problem with this. I simply replaced missing font for the known one and that's it...
Thank you very much for any idea.
Regards...Ilja

like maybe I hit some odd key command that made it all go away but I've been unable to get anywhere.
Yes that is the case, you accidentally must have hit the cmd + T key and now you have set Bridge to show only thumbnails.
Under the menu view you will see a checkmark in front of the option: "show thumbnail only" . Click on it again to deselect or hit again cmd + T (on a Mac) and you get back to the normal situation

Please Help !! Can't find "outline" button in CS5 ? (not blending option "outline")

Please Help !! I can't find a button named "outline" in CS5??
Can someone please help me figure out how to "outline" my logo in CS5 so it can get printed on a window decal?
I did it once but now I can't remember how I did it,
Any help would be great !!
Thank you

As MST says, the PS term for outline is Stroke.
If the logo is on its own layer, you can also do it via Blending Mode > Stroke where you can tweak the parameters.

Styles drawer disappeared!!

Hey,
I worked since a long time on a very big document in Pages. I defined a lot of styles and everything was running quite smoothly. Now, suddenly the Styles drawer has disappeared. It is still marked as "view Styles drawer" and no matter if I click to hide it and then again on view it doesn't change anything. Neither restart of the programme or the Mac change anything.
I need help!
Regards,
Steffen

Hi Jerry,
I'm really frustrated with the new Pages. In my ordinary workflow, I create documents that have as many as four to six different custom styles (headings, subheadings, body text, list text, etc.). In iWork '09, all I'd have to do to change a style is click on a line of text and select the desired style in the drawer, which I have permanently open on the left side and which handily listed all the styles I needed in one layer. Same goes for when I carriage return and need to have the next line a completely different style than the previous (e.g. typing paragraph text under a heading).
Now, however, my list of styles which I need to access is buried one layer deep in the new styles drawer, which lamentably is a drop-down menu! I know it's only one extra click but for the amount of style changing I do it is a huge inconvenience. I searched everywhere in the app but I can't seem to find a way to make the Styles pane a drawer or at least a floating window.
Anyone have any ideas??

Drawing Table & Displaying Data in SAP Script : Data Alignment probelm

Hi Experts,
I am Developing An SAP Script in Which Had to Display Data in a Table with Three column & multiple rows, i had created the Table using BOX Command in SAP SCRIPT & assigned a TEXT Element to it & calling this text element while Looping in WRITE_FORM FM.but while displaying DATA in One column the data in another columns shift to the right & if the data in 1st column is less the data in the second column shift to the left. i know these issues had been covered in the past but i am not getting any concrete results from searching in the forum.
Also On more problem when ever i am declaring a text element in some other window & also giving the Command BOX inside it to draw outline the BOX is not drawn.
This seem to be an alignment issue . Experts Please provide me with some alternative.
Thanks & Regards
Priyesh Shah

Hi ,
To stop columns going left and right.Use number of position in the variable .Like fix the lenght &name(10)&.Here name can print 10 characters.
For box not appearing in other window check the box command parameters .It will draw.Not a alignment problum.

[SOLVED]Emerald/compiz draws window decoration around conky...

Hi! I've recently installed conky for the first time ever and wish to use it as a simple clock. I have edited the .conkyrc to achieve this, however when I start conky, compiz draws the emerald theme around my conky clock.
Having looked around the web, a common suggestion seems to be to add:
!(name=conky)
To my Window Decoration Window Matching config (it's usually set to "Any") in order to exclude conky from having window decorations drawn. Unfortuntely, this doesn't work.
Another suggestion was to add "-conky" to "Any", giving me:
any -conky
However, this removes window decorations from ALL windows.
Here is my conky config:
