Erodible Point in the Shapes Menu

I'm going through the Classroom In A Book for Photoshop CC and on page 296 the author is introducing the "erodible tip" (in the context of "The Mixer Brush") and tells us to select any pencil icon in the Brush panel "and then choose Erodible Point from the Shape menu." But actually it is not clear to me where the "Shapes menu" is. And that phrase or term: "Erodible Point" is missing from Adobe documentation generally. Any thoughts?

see this article--erodible point draws a line that looks like a crayon

FAQ: Why isn't the anchor point centered in shape layers?

[UPDATE: In After Effects CC (12.1) and later, you can center the anchor point within the visible content of a layer. ]
Short answer
Because in shape layers you can have two distinct kinds of anchor points - the anchor point in the main transform properties, as in any other layer type, and also an anchor point in the specific transform properties for each shape. When you create shapes by dragging with the shape tools, it's the anchor point for the shape group that will be centered. If you want to animate the whole layer from the main transform properties, you may need to shift the anchor point so it matches the visual center of your content.
Long answer
Shape layers are a unique type of content in After Effects.
In fact, they introduce a bit of the object/group hierarchy model in Adobe Illustrator, rather than follow the typical layer model in After Effects.
In other words, while you can definitely use them to quickly create a vector shape and then animate that shape as any other layer in After Effects, you also get the ability to create, edit and animate multiple shapes (each with its' own set of visual appearances) nested in a single shape layer.
This allows all kinds of cool animation opportunities, but it also means that a shape layer is not your typical After Effects layer.
So, when you create a shape by dragging with the shape tool, there actually is an anchor point that is perfectly centered - that's the anchor point in the transform property group for that shape group. If you double click a shape, you'll see a bounding box. This a visual representation of the transform properties for the shape group, and the anchor point specific to this group will default to the middle of that bounding box.
However, the main anchor point for the whole shape layer may not be centered relative to the shape content. This is normal behavior - Note that if After Effects tried to center the layer anchor point relative to the first shape group you create, it would be immediately wrong when you add more shape groups to the layer. Or when you animate shape groups around.
Now, as many other things in After Effects, shape layers are designed to let you go as deep as you want. Ideally, you may want to try animating the transform properties for each shape group, since there's when things get really powerful. However, if you want to consider shape layers as a one shape per layer entity and animate in that way, you can of course do that. Bear in mind that you may need to center the anchor point yourself relative to the visual center of the content. If you don't do this, the shape layer's content will be offset from motion paths, or behave in a different way from what you may expect when animating scale or rotation.
To do this, make sure you're not selecting a nested shape group but the shape layer itself, then you can do the following:
Use the Pan Behind tool as with any other layer (this may not give what you want if you do it after creating a motion path, since it will modify position values).
Drag the hot text for the Anchor Point property in the Timeline panel, as if it was a slider. You can then re-thread the content relative to the motion path. You can also achieve this by Option- (Mac OS) or Alt- (Windows) dragging with the Pan Behind tool.
For more information on shape layers, see Drawing, painting and paths in After Effects Help.

THANK YOU SO MUCH :-)
I didn't knew this shortcut as I didn't have to use it anyway.
but it's weird because all the other tools like even the circular gradient tool have their point visible.
Anyway, I guess you can press H with any tools.
Again, thank you, I should have ask it before. ;-)

I recently bought, from the original website of Adobe, Photoshop elements 13. However, when I go with my mouse pointer over the menu, It hangs or he works very slow. Does anyone have an idea how I can fix it? I have already downloaded updates, both from Adobe and Windows. I have a new pc with window 8.1.

It could be a coincidence, but I rebooted the machine and (knock on wood) PSE13 seems to be working ok.

When I connect my apple tv to my access point upstair and connect my ipad to the same access point i cant see my apple tv when i open up the airplay menu on my ipad. but i can see the apple tv in the living room downstair which connect to the main router

when I connect my apple tv to my access point upstair and connect my ipad to the same access point i cant see my apple tv when i open up the airplay menu on my ipad. but i can see the apple tv in the living room downstair which connect to the main router.
Below is some info i get about ports.
I tried to set DMZ on my main router to have full access to ported to access point upstair which is in the ip of 192.168.1.2 and the main router in the living room is the gateway router with the 192.168.1.1 ip.
I still cant see apple tv after i try the DMZ method.
any suggestion ?
These network ports are used by Apple TV for communications on your network.
TCP port 123 is used to communicate with a network time server.
TCP port 3689 is used to communicate with iTunes while using the iTunes Library Sharing feature.
UDP port 5353 is used by Apple TV for automatically finding computers with iTunes on your network using Bonjour.
TCP port 80 is used for communicating with podcast servers.
TCP port 80 and 443 are used for basic and secure communications with the iTunes Store via the Internet.
TCP port 53 is used for regular DNS.
These are well-known ports used by Apple products, like iTunes. If you can use all the features of iTunes, these ports are likely already open on your firewall or NAT router. Note: These ports may also used by other services such as YouTube and Flickr.

When the Apple TV is paired with a remote, it means only that remote can control it, when it's not paired any remote can control it. You will need a remote for each of your devices.

Mouse pointer has lost its place in the shapes list

Suddenly, my mouse pointer exhbits a mismatch of shape and current context.
Examples:
On the compose page of ASC, placed in the left or right margin, or anywhere from the to of the screen to the space below the grey bar of buttons that starts with the apple and ends with the search box, the pointer has the expected black arrow shape.
Hovered over Apple Support Communities, New, Your Stuff, History, Browse, or in the spaces along that line, it changes to a cross with centred dot similar to the drawn shape below:
Placed in or beside the formatting controls above the compose box, it returns to the expected black arrow shape, whether over the grey area or the cfomatting buttons.
In the text entry area, whe're back to the cross, very difficult to pick out on the page, especially when it's somewhere in the text.
The cross remains as I move the pointer down the page. There's a quick flash of the arrow to the left and slightly above the cross as the pointed moves downward across the word Categories, and across the words in the list of categories below, and from there to the bottom of the page.
The cross gets substituted for other pointer shapes as well—On Google Maps, the cross shows until I press the mouse button to grab the map, then changes to the enpected closed hand when I drag the map in any direction. In Sreet view, I get the arrowm the cross, or an I beam in the circle that indicates where a click will move the viewpoint, or a cross in the circle that indicates the center of a magnified view.
Questions: What's happening? How do I fix it?
Comments and suggestions apreciated.

Barry
MBP with Retina, mid 2012, 2.3 GHz Core i17, 8 Gb, OS X v10.8.4 (12S55)

Hi Linc,
Thanks for the pointer. Neither of the Adobe plug-ins mentioned in the linked discussion are installed on my MBP; in fact the only one installed is the Google Earth We Plug-in.
In the meantime, the mouse pointer has gone back to behaving normally. The only significant action I can think of is that the MBP was shut down for a little over 10 hours today. I had restarted it a couple of times last night, but had not let it sit for any extended time.
Still a mystery.

Point in a CubicCurve2D - Not in the boundary of the shape

Hello, I have a problem, because I wanna know, when a point is in the CubicCurve2D line (not inside the boundary of the shape), but I just find on the API when the point is inside the boundary of the shape... Some idea??

How to change the registration point on a shape

Hi,
Is there a way to change the registration point on a shape
created in Director? For instance, I created a filled oval, and by
default Director sets the top left corner of the surrounding square
as the registration point. Nevertheless, I need to place that
registration point at the center of the oval.
Best regards.

Hi, if you create a shape vector from director, the reg point
is in the center of it; if you import a vector created in other
aplication (flash), the regpoint is in the top left corner. To
change the regpoint of an imported shape, try this:
put your shape in the stage in x,y = 0,0 position, then, if
your shape rect is 12,8 pixs, and if you want to move the regpoint
to the center of it
on preparemovie me
member("yourshape").regpoint = point(6,4)
end
play and stop the movie, your shape will change the regpoint
to 6,4
remove the script, and that's all.
Best regards.

When I open a drop down menu from the tool bar, and move the pointer down the list of choices, they become constantly "darkly highlighted" and the typefaces change to black making them unreadable.

As the pointer is moved down the list of choices in a drop down box, once the pointer passes each choice, that choice becomes constantly “darkly highlighted” and the type face of that choice turns black. So, as the pointer moves down the list of choices all of the choices become a block of darkly highlighted black text, making it impossible to read the choices which were passed over by the pointer.
It is though the HTML, JavaScript or Java attribute of ''*<code>onMouseover</code>'' is missing the attribute of ''*<code> onMouseout</code>'', thereby when the user moves the pointer off the boundaries of the element, that element retains the CSS given it by the''*<code> onMouseover</code>''

I should probably add that i am working in asp!

Help please, I can only see outlines when I use the shape tool in CS5 ?

When I open action script 2 or 3 in CS5, and draw a rectangle or any shape, I can only see outlines? The problem IS NOT the outlines button that is in the layers palet as I have changed this many times and it has mad no difference and the problem IS NOT because I have selected no fill or colour for the shape.
If you want to see a screenshot of my computer follow this link as I have exactly the same problem http://forums.adobe.com/message/2927153
BUT interestingly, when I have opened someone elses .fla work document, I can draw and fill shapes without a problem, which makes me wonder whether I am missing some basis setting when I start with my own new document ??
Any help would be much appreciated. I am fairly conversant with Photoshop but a newbie in Flash

I've learned something new since that posting you point to that might help--it has the same effect as using the outline tool on the layer, but globally. In the main menu select View -> Preview Mode -> and anything except Outlines.

Using the "Party" Menu and Having Problems?

There has been much discussion regarding problems with the "Party" Menu from the En Library. All sorts of problems, but the common aspect was this particular Menu.
Thanks to Jeff Bellune, we have looked closely at this Menu for any errors on Adobe's part. None have been found. The only possibility that Jeff, or I could see, was that the font used, Brush Script Std. might not be installed on all machines. This would trigger an error message in Photoshop, and ask permission to substitute that font for one that is installed. No problem, other than a substituted font. However, Jeff pointed out that Encore might have issues with a missing font, and not treat this in the same way that PS would. This is a bit of speculation, but in Jeff's case his "speculation" is much better than my "knowledge."
As for the font, it ships in the "Goodies" section on the installation disc, and should be included in the Functional Content with the downloaded version of CS3/CS4. It should also be part of the full install, though I suppose that there would be circumstances where it might not install automatically. If this is your case, just go to your installation disc, and locate the font. Use a manual install through Windows, or your OS. Now, this particular Menu should function perfectly. There could also be others, where the font might not be present on one's system. Again, the solution would be the same - install that font.
The only oddity that I found was that the Sub-picture Highlight of the first Button was turned ON. Not sure if this was just a mistake of Adobe's, or was maybe something that I did accidently. Either way, if you get Button 1 with a Highlight (star Shape to the left of the text), just go into that Button's Layer Set and make sure that it's turned OFF. That is the correct state for all Sub-picutre Highlights. The DVD player, or computer, will turn the appropriate one ON, when that Button is navigated to.
I think that I can safely say that there are no "gremlins" in that Menu. Besides checking out perfectly in PS, it functioned perfectly in En. Of course, I had that font installed, as did Jeff.
If any user finds any problem with that Menu, please post the complete and exact details on what you encounter and complete details on your version of En, plus the installation method and language of both the installation and the program. Those could be very important. More details are better.
Hope we don't see mention of the "Party" Menu, except that people used it with NO issues.
Good luck,
Hunt

Line Graph repeats the starting data point at the end also

Hi,
We have a Line Graph as below. This graph is used to show the Salary changes of a person, over time.
But this graph shows an additional non existing data point. Basically it shows the starting data point once again at the end of the other data points.
The model VO for this graph, does not contain this additional data point record. But the graph repeats the starting data point at the end also.
In the screen-shot you can see that, the graph has three data points. But the table has only two. The first data point in the graph is repeated as the last data point.
Is this a Bug..?
Or an issue with the usage of the DVT tags?
The code is given below.

If I understand your question, this from the Pages online help may give the answer:
To mark line, area, and scatter charts with data point symbols:
Select the entire chart. You can also select the chart series (the line or area shape) that you want to mark with data point symbols.
Click Inspector in the toolbar, and then click the Chart Inspector button.
Click Series (except for scatter charts).
Choose a symbol from the Data Point Symbol pop-up menu.
Choose one of the following options from the Symbol Fill pop-up menu:
To fill the symbol with the same color as its outline, choose Use Stroke Color.

How can I assign points to the alternatives in a question?

Hi! I am building my first quiz in Captivate and I have this little problem I haven´t been able to solve. I want a make a test that meassures how stress you are att work. It looks like a survey, I´ll have about 20 or more questions with the same type of alternatives, no right or wrong alternatives, but you choose the one you agree the most with. The thing is that i want to give a value point to each alternative and be able to have a score at the end. See the example.
How often do you feel stressed att work?
1. never : 0 points
2. one a week: 2 points
3. three times a week: 3 points
4. Everyday: 4 points
Att the end, the score you get tells you how stressed you are, but instead of showing a result in term of points, you´ll get a text giving you feedback and recomendations for better health. Can I do that in Captivate? I haven´t been able to find a way to do that yet...
Thanks for any help you can give me!

Hello,
Tried putting something together that could be possible, concentrated on the workflow. There will be some repetitive tasks to be done however, problem is that a click box cannot stay for a whole project, which means that a click box gets its proper ID on each slide. Will try to explain, it is up to you to judge if this is acceptable, or if you'd go better with a Flash app.
Created (for the moment, perhaps you'll need more if p.e. for Q1-Q10 you need a separate result for A and for B, result for Q11-Q20...) two user variables:
v_AClick to store the number of clicks on A-option
v_BClick to store the number of clicks on B-option
The results can then be used later on for a condition (did not write it yet).
Created a first slide with these objects:
dummy Text Caption 'Option A' (will be replaced later on with question text)
click box covering up this Text Caption, named it (ID) ClickA1 (this is the tedious part, has to be done for each CB; ClickA2, ClickA3...)
dummy Text Caption 'Option B' (will be replaced later on with question text)
click box covering up this Text Caption, named it (ID) ClickB1 (this is the tedious part, has to be done for each CB; ClickB2, ClickB3...)
imported a 'sign' to be showed after the user clicked into the Library, and put an instance to the right of each Text Caption, those were labeled VinkA and VinkB. Very important: set those instances to 'Show for the entire project', which avoids to have them duplicated to each slide, we will hide and show them as necessary.
button 'Next' which on Succes jumps to next slide.
The blue Text Caption was for me, to check if the actions were functioning, shouldn't be there in the end file.
I created a first Advanced action, labeled it HideVink (sorry for the Dutch, Vink = the green symbol), to be triggered on entering the slide:
Hide VinkA
Hide VinkB
Second/third action, labeled A_Action1/B_Action1 to be triggered by clicking on the ClickA1/ClickB2 with these actions:
increment v_AClick/v_BClick with 1
hide the other clickbox, thus ClickB1/ClickA1 to avoid that the user could click on both options
show AVink/BVink
Here is an example, action A_Action1
Those two actions have to be duplicated for each Question slide (A_Action2, B_Action2,....). What has to be changed in the duplicates is only the number of the Click Box, that is why I labeled them to make the process easier.
Now I duplicated the slide as many times as necessary. The actions for button and entering slide are OK, but the actions for the click boxes have to be adapted (tedious).
Why did I use 'dummy' Text Captions: I should export (File menu) the Text Captions to a Word-document, change the dummy texts (left column) to the real captions (much easier in one doc) and re-import them into the CP-file.
That was my homework, as promised. Hope it helps, even if you choose to go the Flash-way after all.

How to create a shape based on the shape of an image

I want to erase a portion of a mask based on the shape of an image. how can i do this? btw how to create a circle? thx

Both your questions leave room for imagining what you might really mean, but here's a shot at answering them.
If you have a mask that you want to erase portions of based on an image... assuming the mask is a simple rectangle you drew with the rectangle tool, change the opacity of the rectangle's fill in the color panel to make it see-thru, place the mask over the image, and using the eraser tool, erase the portions of the mask that you do not intend to retain using the image below it as a guide.
As for drawing a circle, hover over the rectangle tool and a menu should appear. Select the oval/ellipse tool. To draw a circle, hold down the shift key and draw just as you did for the rectangle. The shift key forces it to retain equal width and height.

How to get the standard Menu of Query Designer into Web Template

Hi Experts,
is there a way on how to put the standard menu within Bex Query Designer (after executing a Query with the Query Designer you get into ad-hoc reporting with a menu including several functions like print, show as..., properties, etc) into an individual Bex Web Template?
Copy & Paste source code will not work I guess because of several javascript functions I don't have access to.
Thanks & Best regards
Tobias

BEx queries are displayed on the web using standard web template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN or some customized version base don your implementation.
You can either include the 0ANALYSIS_Pattern web template in your custom template or use Save as to create a new template with 0ANALYSIS_Pattern AS THE STARTING POINT.

How do I connect a user account to a server's share points when the user is on the same Mac as the Lion Server?

I've installed and configured Lion Server on an old iMac that suddenly became available when I upgraded to a new iMac. I've got a share point on there. It was easy. Love it.
My bookkeeper comes into my office once a week and works on that iMac. He already has a regular user account set up there. He needs to access the sharepoint that is on that iMac he's using, and which is now running Lion Server. But I can't see the server from his account, and I can't manually connect to it - I get an error to connect locally on the Mac instead.
But I can't navigate to the point in the user account that I'm using as a file serving account to get him access to the directory I'm sharing.
So, in short, how does a local user on an iMac running Lion Server connect to the server's sharepoints?

All drives are now listed under volumes both local and remote.
I would try the fullpath using /Volumes/....
or post the file paths your trying
are you trying the goto menu?
