  • How do you apply a vector mask to a folder in Photoshop CS6?

    The ways you apply vector masks in CS6 is different than in CS5.
    I knew how to apply a vector mask to a folder of layers in CS5.
    I cannot figure out how to do it in CS6.
    So my question is:
    How do you apply a vector mask to a folder in Photoshop CS6?
    And while we're at it, what are the best methods for applying vector masks to regular layers?
    Thanks.

    The thing is, Im not usiing the pen tool to create the vector shape. Im using the vector box tool to create a rectangle [...]
    Yes and that's why I wrote the words "vector tool" and never mentioned a pen. (Although the instructions would be exactly the same for using the Pen Tool because the Pen Tool is a vector tool.)
    which I then want to turn into a layer group mask.
    And yes, this does not work the same way as it did in CS5.
    I wish it did. : |
    Adding a vector mask to a layer or group is exactly the same in CS5.1 and CS6 on my Mac. Maybe that's done differently in CS5 than in CS5.1, but it seems unlikely.
    You have the layer or group targeted. Now draw a rectangular path after making sure the Rectangle Tool is in Path mode, and not Shape mode and not Pixel mode. Then Cmd/Ctrl-click the Add Mask button at bottom of Layers panel.

  • How to create the Frame object with API in 6i?

    do i create an item using d2fitmcr_Create, and then set the type or style to frame? or is it a graphics item that i have to create using a different function? ive tried various combinations with no luck.
    ive looked at the frame object in the GUI, and cant figure out how to duplicate it using the API (the frame object is the thin line box with a label used to groups items visually on a form)
    thanks!
    [email protected]

    Frame is a type of graphic d2fgracr_Create() (d2fgra.h) then set the type as required using d2fgras_graphics_typ():
    Definition of Graphics types is in d2fdef.h
    ** Graphics Type (D2FP_GRAPHICS_TYP)
    ** [BPT]
    #define D2FC_GRTY_ARC              0                                 /* Arc */
    #define D2FC_GRTY_IMAGE            1                               /* Image */
    #define D2FC_GRTY_LINE             2                                /* Line */
    #define D2FC_GRTY_POLY             3                             /* Polygon */
    #define D2FC_GRTY_RECT             4                           /* Rectangle */

  • How can i outline an object made of shapes without outlining the individual shapes or marging them

    How can i outline a visual shape made of a group of elements (vector shapes) without outlining the individual elements or margeing them togeather. I would normally go by marging them togeather but client requested they be unmaged

    Here is another way
    similar but a little different
    group the objects
    select the group in the appearance panel and go to Effects>Path>Outline Object
    then add a new stroke to the Group
    then select that stroke in the appearance panel and go to Effect>Pathfinder>Add
    the go to Effect>Path>offset path if you wish to give it some space around the object like such

  • How to synchronize test schema objects with the prod schema objects.

    Hi,
    I have a requirement of synchronizing test schema objects with the production schema objects. Please let me know the below
    1. if there is a standardized method for such activity,
    2. if there are oracle utilities for this task.
    3. If i had to do this job manually, can you let me know the check list if any.

    You could try database diff tool in sql developer(but there are some licence restrictions).
    I don't know your database version, you could try DBMS_COMPARISON package also.
    Look at this link http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28419/d_comparison.htm
    Other solution is to create db link between test and production database, and then you can try different types of queries like
    select table_name from user_tables
    minus
    select table_name from user_tables@db_link_to_other_database
    And you can do this for columns, indexes and so on.
    But you must have proper DDL scripts for this, to generate sync script.
    Also there is a question about work process, you are doing sync in reverse order(from production to test). Test db is for test, after test you go to production db with proper ddl and dml scripts, so these schemas shouldn't be different in the first place(talking about schema, not data here).

  • How to write to a file with \n (new line)???

    Hi there,
    I have the following method that reads a file's content and convert it into a string:
         public static String getFileContent(String fileName) throws IOException
              File file = new File(fileName);
              FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
              BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fileInputStream));
              StringBuffer stringBuffer = new StringBuffer();
              String line;
              while ( (line=bufferedReader.readLine()) != null )
                   stringBuffer.append(line+"\n");
              return stringBuffer.toString();
         }I'm trying to write a method that writes a String to a file WITH THE NEW LINE. All classes I used (DataOutputStream, FileWriter, PrintStream...) do not force a new line (I get everything in one line)
    I thought maybe I should change the "\n" in the line
    stringBuffer.append(line+"\n"); but...didn't know what.
    thanks for any advise

    BufferedReader readLine remove the newline sequence. But you're putting \n back which should do what you appear to want.
    However newline sequence isn't always just \n, on unix systems it's \n, on windows its \r\n (reads "carriage-return, linefeed"). Sytem.getProperty("line.separator"); will get you the appropriate end of line string.

  • How to sort an internal table with a header line?

    hi all,
    i have declared table i_bseg type standard table of bseg with header line.
    now i have populated data in i_bseg.
    now i am sorting it by bukrs
    ie i am writing sort i_bseg by bukrs.
    before sorting all i_bseg-belnrs were populated...
    but after sorting the contents of  the i_bseg is changing.
    some of the belnrs are getting deleted..
    is there any special way to sort an internal table with header line...?

    hi,
    <b>SORT <itab> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT] [STABLE].</b>
    The statement sorts the internal table <itab> in ascending order by its key.<b> The statement always applies to the table itself, not to the header line</b>.
    If you have an internal table with a structured line type that you want sort by a different key, you can specify the key in the SORT statement:
    SORT <itab> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT] [STABLE]
                 BY <f1> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT]
                    <fn> [ASCENDING|DESCENDING] [AS TEXT].
    <b>this is your sort statement:  sort i_bseg by bukrs.
    you try with this statement:  sort i_bseg by bukrs STABLE.</b>

  • How do I report a fault with my home line?

    Just thought this was as good a place as any for this little tidbit: if you're having problems with your phone line service like not being able to make or receive calls, or your line is crackly and drops out the people you need to talk are our Fixed Line Faults team on 132203. However sometimes the phone isn't convenient for you. That's why we also have our https://go.telstra.com.au/helpandsupport/-/reporting-a-fault-with-your-home-phone-line
    Using that form, we can identify a number of common faults and if it's required we'll ask you to fill out some details so we can call you back. Of course if your problem doesn't fall into any of the categories on the form then your best bet is to give us a call on 132203 and talk to someone to work out exactly what's going on with you over the phone.
    I hope this helps, and if you have any thoughts about this or think I've left anything out feel free to comment away!

    Hi, Phone lines been reported as down again. Sigh... I think we're up to the fifth time in the last 30 days that it's gone down... (Stopped counting the number of times over the last three months). Haven't even reported the times that one of us has got up in the middle of the night as the hands free set's been beeping registering a lack of dial tone.  Sometimes it's back up again by break of day, othertimes - not so much. Bit over it really, wish Telstra would just fork out for whatever piece of equipment up at the main road branch pegs out whenever we've had more than an inch of rain. You get that a bit in the tropics.  Airlie Beach has spectacularly bad phone service and roads.... As you're meant to phone and report on 132203 if the lines been reported as faulty in the last 30 days, I've spent way too much time on that number.  I've actually just had that number on speakerphone on the mobile for the last five minutes.  I've almost given up reporting line faults, have Telstra given up answering them too??   I've never been a conspiracy theorist, but are you lot trying to get us all to move to Skype and mobile??  Does Telstra own Skype shares??  Is there such a thing as Skype shares???  Whatever... Could you just fix the line already???
