How do I create these mesh/polka dot patterns in Illustrator? (pictures inside)

I am creating templates and need to know how to do this mesh/polka dot type pattern. It seems extremely simple, but I can't seem to figure out how to pull it off in Illustrator...
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

That looks like they simply used the halftone effect from the Effects menu. Effect>Sketch>Halftone Pattern
it comes out black and white so they may have use it as an opacity mask/ You need a filled path to get it to work properly and it shoulshave some form of gradient as the fill to be percise.
If you want dots to be completely round and vector which is a false halfone effect you make two blends large dots and small dots
You expand the blends
Then make a blend of the expanded art Read about making blends and blend options
Here I left it filled with blue and made an opacity mask read about opacity masks
Here i filled the blends with black and made an opacity mask

How do I create a txt box in Photoshop on a picture?

I have to buy photoshop for my son's classes anyway. But I am currently on the 30 day free trial trying to learn how to use it myself for a class reunion. I have already wasted 4 days and made very little progress. I removed some blemishes. Took out some unsightly background items. I can place text in a picture. But how do I place a solid coloured text box in a picture?

Add a new empty layer on top of your image. User the rectangle marquee tool to draw out the size of the rectangle you want. Fill the selection with the color you want. Add a text layer over that layer.

How can you create a swatch from a jpeg in Illustrator CS4?

I am trying to create a jpeg image into a swatch in Illustrator CS4. In previous versions you could simply drag the image into the swatches toolbar and it would convert it automatically. Now when I do that nothing happens. When I click on new swatch it creates a colour swatch instead of the actual image itself.

When you say you would drag the image itself into the Swatch Palette and it would show the image itself? How would then use this swatch? Can you give an example of what you would apply a jpeg to as a swatch? The only palette that I can think of off the top of my head that you can drag a jpeg into and have the icon appear as the jpeg is the Symbols Palette. Is is possible that you were using the Symbols Palette in the past and not the Swatch Palette?

How do I make a small honeycomb swatch pattern in Illustrator?

Hi All
I really want to make a small honeycomb swatch pattern (the polygons should be small - 2 px x 2px) , but I just cannot get it to work. What I did is make one small polygon, and went to: Object>pattern>make
and applied the following settings:
See images:
This is how it looks.
You will see that on the shoulder of the t-shirt, the pattern is kinda trasparent - the bottom layer is visible-I don't want it to be.
The bottom pattern(on the side of the t-shirt) you will see came out fine, except that the polygons are too big and I cannot get it any smaller - How do I do that?
Any help will be appreciated!

Maybe this video can help you

What are easy ways to create these effects or graphics?

Hello,
I am trying to create a logo for a new business whose product is electronic cleaning cloths for iPads, computer monitors, or most things digital.
Therefore, I am trying to find out ways of creating motifs or design elements, parts of which I might incorporate in the logo. Thus, I would like to know how to create the following digital looks. There are a lot of questions here. I don't expect anyone to answer them all, just what you comfortably know and whatever is convenient for you to spare a few minutes to explain and/or show.
Thanks! : )
1. How can I create lines like these that glow?
2. How do I create the "stitching" or dotted line pattern in the circles and rectangle below.
3. How do I create the circuitry lines with their circlular terminals (or do I just use pen tool in Illustrator CS5?
4. Finally, how can I create these circuitry lines and shapes?

A word of caution here. Yes, all of the effects you are showing can be done, either in Photoshop or Illustrator. I'm thinking gradient mesh and blends for the glows. A dotted line could be created in the stroke palette. But, just because you can do it, doesn't mean you do it. Logos are typically very basic so they can be implemented across a large area of application ( i.e., signs, vehicle graphics, letterhead and stationery, advertising, and internet applications ). If you were to create a sophisticated graphic effect, it would not hold-up in all of the potential uses and surely would not be rendered consistently. You will get vendor's who complain about this or that regarding your artwork. Try to think basic lines in Black and White that could easily be reproduced on an office copier. Later on, you can use the basic logo in a more sophisticated application where it would be appropriate.

How can I create a shortcut to a tools menu option?

I use the clone stamp and the brush tool regularly. Each of these tools provides a Mode: dropdown list to select from in their menu bar.
The drop down options I use most frequently are Lighten and Darken. I would like to create short cuts to Lighten and Darken, such as Ctrl+Shift+L (Lighten) and Ctrl+Shift+D (Darken).
The tools panel menu bar does not appear to have a selection list in the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box.
How do I create these shortcuts.
Thank you in advance,
Jim

They are already there. The same shortcuts that affect layer blend modes when other tools are selected, do exactly the same thing when the Brush; Clone, Healing Brush, Blur, Sharpen and Smudge tools are selected. (I forgot the gradient tool)
So with the Move tool or a Marquee selected
Shift Alt + scrolls down through the selected blend modes
Shift Alt - scrolls up through the selected blend modes
Your can go directly to specific Blend modes with first letters
Shift Alt n = Normal
Shift Alt m = Multiply
Shift Alt s = Screen
Now select the brush, or one of the tools that have blend modes, and the same keys will do the same job for that tool's blend mode.

Very Confused over Reinstall Discs, Recovery Discs and how do I CREATE THEM!

I am the owner of a Lenova IdeaCenter K300 Computer with Windows 7 64Bit OS
The system has been running for just about a year now...no issues, very stable...however after a recent issue with another computer MFG system...I have questions:
First the Other MFG system - The computer was purchased in April of 2008 with Windows Vista, the computer was unplugged on November 1, 2008 and stored in a cool Dry place....In October of 2011 My Godson wanted a new computer and I told him I have a computer that was lightly used and would do what he wanted it to do.
I plugged in a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and turned on the unit when MUCH to my surprise the HD had failed...BADLY...so I went to a local store, purchased a new HD and installed it on the machine.
First let me explain that this computer MFG after several calls to them looking for help.. explained to me the following
1: Reinstall Discs were NOT avail
2: The System did not support creating Recovery discs since all the information that the system needed was stored on
the Hard Drive that was supplied with the system...and that the OEM Windows VISTA version was available to use for
3 years
I said Okay, but I have a computer that had a HD failure so how do I go about reinstalling Windows Vista to get the computer up and running again? They told me that I had to PURCHASE from a store a copy of Windows Vista. I said that I had from two other computers from another MFG Windows Vista Reinstall Discs, can I use those, and use the Product Key code supplied by YOUR company to reintsall the OS? They said NO...you need the orginal Hard Drive....I was like WHAT!
Needless to say you can imagine my EXTREME frustration over not being able to get the computer up and running again. After several calls to the Presidents Office I was finally....after 6 weeks of battle able for a cost mind you of $19.99 to get physical DVD's to reintall Windows Vista onto the system - (they should arrive this week)
So now I am sitting in front of this LENOVA computer wondering ...Worse CaseScenerio...HD FAILURE...and lets face it it DOES HAPPEN.
so here are my questions
1: What is the difference between Recovery Disc and Reinstall Dics?
2: If this Lenova System can only Create Recovery Discs ...and the HD needs to be replaced will the Recovery discs reintsall Windows 7 on this system?
3: How do I create these discs...I found an option on Lenova Rescue System to create Recovery Discs but it was 24 4.5 GB DVD's to do this? Windows Vista only needed 2
Am I missing something here can some one Please help me
thank you!

They should sell you recovery disc without any problems. If you call customer service and you feel that the conversation is going no ware you probably talking to wrong person. Disconnect and tray another time, you will never speak to the same person twice
OEM reinstall disc doesn’t need activation, retail windows disc needs but you have serial number on the sticker so just call Microsoft and activate it.
Recovery disc is a copy of your computer hard drive with windows, drivers, software included
Reinstall disc is the same for all computers with windows only, you have to install drivers and software separately
Reinstall OEM disc is only for Lenovo system but it is the same like retail windows disc with added pre-activation

How do i create 6 digital 25Hz PWM output signals with my PCI-6221 card?

Hi!
I´m a student, who´s trynig to control a gasturbine process for my diploma thesis. The control program should be written in LabView 8. I need to control 6 25 Hz PWM signals for the gasvalves. The needed accuracy of the duty cycle has to be about 0.1 %.
A tech. engeneer from NI told us , that we can do this by using one single digital output for each PWM.
Now, after a while, i need to implement it into my program. But there are troubles:
My NI-PCI-6221 standard card only has 2 couteroutputs and only the first of the 3 ports seems to be buffered (Error Nr. 201062)...
I tried to do the programming, by manipulating the "DIO_PWM_50Hz.vi" I found in google.
Does anyone of you have any information or helpful examples how i can create these PWM with my card, or did I get a wrong Information by the salesagent (...not the first time....)?
Thanks for your help
Tobi

Here you can find an example, how to do this:
http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/niepd_web_display.display_epd4?p_guid=DE27921DB53A4D8DE034080020E74861&p_...
As the text says, best would be to use the counter. As your Hardware has only 2 Counters, you would need additional hardware. Best would be to use a Counter-Card (660x), thes boards have up to 8 counters, so you coulkd control your 6 gasvalves indipendently.
The soultion with the timed digital outputs of the m-series boards would only work, if you can use the same timing (one counter) for all 6 outputs.
Hope this helps!

How do i create o new style in ppages?

I would like to have a list style that adds no extra space after the line feed and another list style that adds 1/2 line after the line feed.
How do I create these new styles in Pages?
thanks in advance,
Ed

We no longer have line feeds because we know longer have fixed line lengths. That is why it is called a text string and it just wraps to fit.
Your model was back when the text was monospaced and there were 80 green characters per line on a black screen. I sure hope nobody is using ANSI anymore.
Irregardless of the ancient history, you are talking about paragraph returns, not line feeds, because that is the only place space after applies.
I don't have an iPad, which should be in a separate forum, but assume it all just is applied via paragraph styles wherever they may be.

How do I create this table?

When I paste the buy/sell ticket (table) from this page http://www.globalfutures.com/resources/order-placement.asp into Pages, everything comes out fine except the top - the five columns and split row above Buy and Sell labels.
Any idea how I can create these five columns without adding new columns that go down the length of the ticket? Same for the top row that is split by columns (one box has "ticket #" and the other "Global Futures Exchange & Trading Company, Inc.").
I don't know how to create the type of independent columns and rows they are using.

If you're a client of Global Futures Exchange & Trading Co. Inc. (as opposed to being an employee/associate of Global Futures Exchange & Trading Co. Inc.), is there a need to copy the table?
As I read the page, the table is a ticket produced after an order is received, not a form on which to place an order.
All that's needed to place an order is what's described in the section above the table, and illustrated by the single line example:
How to Place Orders
The first thing to understand about order placement is that there is a standardized way in which to place an order. When placing an order, there are several pieces of information that need to be conveyed.
• Name
• Account Number
• Order Type (Day, Open, Option)
• Buy or Sell
• Number of Contracts
• Month
• Commodity
Here is an example:
"This is John Smith, Account 650-12345. Day Order: Buy 10 March E-Mini S&P at 1285.50"
The table appears to be an illustration of the ticket produced by the associate/employee receiving the order.
Regards,
Barry
PS: I'll skip instructrions for constructing the table, as my instructions would be essentially the same as Peter's.
I'd add a note that having the table model wouldn't particularly simplify the task of copying a similar table (and its information) from the web.

How do i create new domain folders?

hello,
as I have gleened form other post,using a different domain folder will allow you to create separate websites,
but how do I create these domain folders and how do I get iweb to switch between them,
any help much appreciated
cheers
martin

Quit iWeb. Move Domain out of its standard location at ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Rename it in such a way that you remember which site it refers to (DomainSiteName1, or whatever). Launch iWeb. You can now begin from scratch, work on your second site, publish it and so on. iWeb will create a new version of Domain which contains information relevant to your new site.
When you want to return to your original site, quit iWeb, drag the new Domain out of ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb, rename it DomainSiteName2 or whatever, move DomainSiteName1 back, edit the name back to Domain, launch IWeb, and you're back working on your original site.
You can do this as many times as you like, creating a unique copy of the Domain package for each of your sites. Just remember to change the name back to Domain when you move a copy back in to ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb and rename it each time in its new location so you know which site it relates to.
