Help with resizing paintbrush tool

Hello
I used one of the pre made brush strokes in Ai. When I tried to resize (smaller) The brush thickness stayed the same, although the length did reduce. How do I get the entire stroke to resize the same as my grouped image?
Thank You

Ohhh, thank you sooo much, I found it and it worked. Oh
my god, you just saved my whole project, I can't tell you how
grateful I am! (hug)

Need Help with the Clone Tool

I need help with the clone tool, in that when I clone (let's say grass as example), the new cloned area does NOT come out as sharp as the area selected. It comes out much softer and somewhat blurred. I have the opacity and flow both set at 100%. This is very frustrating since I can not get a true clone.

what "tip" do you have selected? where are you sampling from ( found in top option bar) ALSO make sure MODE is normal

Need help with log4j logging tool (org.apache.log4j.*) to log into database

Hi,
I need help with log4j logging tool (org.apache.log4j.*) to log into database using JDBCAppender. Have look at my logger code and corresponding log4j.properties file stated below. I'm running this program using Eclipse IDE and it's giving me the following error (highlighted in red) at the end:

Need Help with the Mesh Tool

I'm having trouble adding a gradient mesh to this image:
http://img237.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture1xi9.png
I would like to make it look a little more 3D or shiny with a white gradient. When I click inside the shape with the mesh tool, it creates some crazy mesh lines.. I'm pretty new to this and would really, really appreciate some help. Thanks! :)

I see the problem as well you may have to make an clipping mask of a rectangle or other shape that is more regular using this shape as the mask and grouping them.

Help with the Spiral Tool, controlling decay

I am attempting to use the spiral tool to create a spiral that gradually increases in the size of the spacing (decay) between segments as it opens up outward. My problem with the spiral tool is that it offers little control of when, where and how much decay between segments occurs...
I've drawn an example of what I'm trying to achieve:
Abuzeedo has done something similar by "holding ALT" however I can't replicate it on my system (CS5, Mac).
reference: http://www.webdesign.org/vector-graphics/adobe-illustrator/spiral-tool-mysteries-solved.76 94.html

There is no Alt key on mac, the equivalent is uslaly option, but most likely you are looking for CMD. The keys on the mac you want to try though are CMD, Up & Down Cursors
Click once and let go to get the options for making spiral, this will help you filgure out
To get the spider web shape, you want to afterwards
Object >> Path >> Add Anchor Point (about 2 times)
Effect >> Distort >> Pucker & Bloat (I used -10)

Why can't I use the Width tool on lines I drew with the Paintbrush tool?

I have drawn a shape using the Paintbrush tool's new smooth fidelity with a 3 pt stroke. But when I go to use the Varible Width tool it want allow me to modify the line. what am I doing wrong? Is this even possible?

Thanks. That seems unfortunate.

Help with resizing adjacent partitions on mirrored drives - Solaris 9 V240

Hi,
I need some help here. I'm very new to unix administration. I am running out of space on my /var directory. I have a set of 72G disks that are mirroring each other. The /var is mounted on /dev/md/dsk/d5 which has only 262M available out of 5.8G. Meanwhile the partition adjacent to it /dev/md/dsk/6 which has the /opt/app directory mounted has 5.8G available out of 13G.
Is it possible for me to take space from the slice 6 and give it to slice 5? How do I do this without loosing any data?
Here is some info about my system:

If this isn't possible, it looks like I have about 12G of free space. Partition 7 is only using from 11677-11685 while I could take it up to 11677-14086. I would then have to create the mirror metattach for that partition and then would I just unmount /var and remount it on the new /dev/md/dsk/d7? I'll need help with that. Then what would I do with the unused d5?
A step by step response would be great! Thanks!

Help with Resizing LUNS on Hitachi 9980

Hi everyone, I need a little help here resizing my LUNS on our Hitachi 9980. I currently have a 1 TB and I want to increase or resize this to 2 TB. I am wondering if someone can help me here. This is something I haven't done before. Is there a step by step way of doing this. I was told that it could be done off line or online. Which is safer? Do I also need to reboot the Host after the resizing? Thanks for your assistance.

Need help with the brush tool.

I just got Illustrator yesterday, and I'm trying to ink a sketch. So I open the file of the sketch, Save it as an adobe Illustrator document, then I create a new layer, then when I go to trace the sketch I get a symbol saying I cant use the brush tool. How do I fix this? Thanks in advance.

Have you actually selected a brush stroke from the Brushes palette? Brusches are differnt from normal line strokes, the latter of which you can create with the Pencil tool...

Help with resizing document

Hi guys,
I am trying to resize my current document. It is currently 1000px and I want to make it 1300px but when I do that, all the elements that is near the top becomes off the screen to the top...Why is that? I only want the document to be longer in height from the bottom but not sure what it is affecting the elements on the top?
Any help appreciated.

Check you publish settings html scale, you might already have "No Border" selected, try publish with "Show all" or "Exact fit".
You may also edit the scale from html <param name="scale" value="noborder", try change it to showall or exactfit.
The swf scale can also be controlled by actionscript Stage.scaleMode
Don't give up, it is not difficult if you already know the way

Help with resizing rectangles

I am very new to adobe and have been struggling with a project that I need to do. I have one rectangle the size of 8.5 x 11 and I need to copy the rectangle and then reduce it to 80% of the orginal rectangle. Can anyone help me with this, I have been struggling with this for days.
Thank You
Nicole

To be clearer than what has been written.
Select the rectangle path and double click the scale tool in the tools panel.
Enter 80% uniform and click the copy button copy.
Hitting the copy button alone is all that is necessary to make the copy no need to do this before entering the scale tool options dialog.
I think Jacob posted this above but put in n extra step that you should not use which is to first copy the rectangle and the enter the scale tool options dialog.
leave that step out just hit copy when in the scale tool dialog.
Sorry Jacob it was Larry not like either one of them to add a step both re usually very direct with the lest amount of steps.

Help with my eraser tool please

I got a new laptop and installed a copy of fireworks on it. It seems to work differently on this new computer than my older one. The Eraser tool is all jittery and jumpy and will even continue on after I have released the mouse button. This sure makes it hard to erase small details. Can anyone help to identify what may be causing this?
PS. I just noticed that the brush tool has this jittery aspect also but the other tools seem fine.

If your new laptop is running Windows Vista and your Fireworks is CS3, then the problem is that the bitmap tools in CS3 don't run well with the transparent Aero theme.
You can change a setting (for Fireworks) so that Aero turns off when you launch Fireworks.
1) Go to where Fireworks is installed, usually C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Fireworks CS3
2) Right-click on Fireworks.exe and select Properties
3) Select the the Compatibility tab
4) Under Compatability mode label, select the checkbox for Run this program in compatability mode for: and select Windows XP (Service Pack 2) from the drop down box.
5) Under the Settings label, check Disable desktop composition
6) Click OK.
Now, when you start up Fireworks, your system should flicker as Aero is disabled (there's a message, which you can disable), but your bitmap tools should work. When you close Fireworks, your system will flicker as Aero returns.

Help with Oracle Scripting Tool

Hello all, I am currently new to using the Oracle Scripting Tool. I can already launch the scripting author and develop some basic scripts using PL/SQL commands and test them using the scripting user responsibility. My main problem is with this one requirement in one of the panels of the script.
In the first panel, there is a multi-list select box with a number of options. The user will select any number of these options then click continue to the next panel. Now here is my problem, if say the user selects 3 options in the last panel, the next panel should show 3 text fields. These text fields will correspond to each option selected meaning if I select 2 options in the last panel, 2 text fields will appear in the next panel or if I select 5 options in the last panel then 5 text fields will apper in the next panel. I dont know how to implement this using the Oracle Scripting tool, please help.. Any advice on this would be of greatly appreciated..

Neither can be affected by the user. The first is a long-standing, frustrating, bug. Please report it via Aperture feedback at "Aperture➞Provide Aperture Feedback". (I make thousands of crops a week, and make hundreds of details from crops (re-cropping smaller). The current set-up, which "helpfully" over-rides _my_ setting, is extremely frustrating.)
The second is not changeable. You could recommend larger and/or more visible sizing handles by filing a second feedback request.
Sorry for the unhelpful news.

Help with elements 6 - tools

I have been working with both elements 5 and CS4 without any problems. Yesterday I purchased a wacom tablet and elements 6 was part of the package. I loaded it and tried to start to edit some photos. I am unable to get the clone tool, healing tool, eraser tool and most of the others to work. I have been able to straighten and crop, but that is all.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? It very well could be a user error issue, but I can't seem to figure out how to get these tools to work.
Help!

You may have to go to the Wacom site and update your drivers. You might have a look through this thread as I believe CS4 has/had issues:

I don't have E6 but I seem to recall in Elements there's a box that needs to be ticked that says "Tablet Support". It should be somewhere in the Options bar...most likely under one of those tiny arrows...when the brush tool is selected.
