How to create Icon with transparent shape inside

Hi All
I would like to create a vector icon with a transparent shape inside it, like in this image below:
So everything should be transparent except of course the dark grey area...
How Do I do that?
Below is a link to my AI file if you want it:
AI File
Thank you!

With just the book icon selected, release clipping mask. Select both items, Minus Front.
Is that what you did? What Illy version?
this is what I get, green rectangle was placed behind to see the "hole."

  • How to use/create icons with transparent background ?

    I would like to use icons with transparent background on JButtons, but I can't find how to do it. Until now, I've been using the ImageIcon class to create icons from GIF images. These images were created with MSPaint (sorry, I don't know what I could have used instead of that). Here is how I create my buttons :
    bPencil = new JButton(new ImageIcon("Pencil.GIF"));What could I do to make the background transparent and/or what software could I use instead of M$Paint ?
    P.S. : sorry if my question seems silly, but I'm a newbie in Java coding...

    Transparent images are GIF (256 colours) and PNG (true-colour, half transparency).
    You can store the image with your code, *.class files. You then even can deliver all inside a clickable, executable .jar file.
    This kind of usage is called "resource," and hence use getResource like this:
        java.net.URL imgURL = getClass().getResource("pencil.gif");
        ImageIcon icon = null;
        if (imgURL != null) {
            icon = new ImageIcon(imgURL, description);
        }You can use paths.
    There exist versions of MSPaint that easily loose their transparent colour on saving.
    For GIFs try internet palettes, or try to save as PNG (recent version).
    Start with a transparent image from elsewhere.

  • How to create swf with transparent backgound

    I have a web site project created in Dreamweaver. On the home page I need a swf file that is transparent and will animate over the dreamweaver backgound. Does the wmode need to be coded in actionscript or is there another way of solving this.
    KatyDad

    The wmode parameter is set in the html code of the web page.  Setting it to a value of "transparent" should make the background invisible for most browsers.

  • Creating animations with transparent backgrounds?

    I'm running into some problems when using After Effects to create animations with transparent backgrounds for Keynote...
    I use animated gifs and short quicktime movies with uniform backgrounds as source files, use color keying to take out the backgrounds, preview them to see if they look OK, render the results as RGB+alpha, and... they don't show up as transparent in Keynote. They work in Powerpoint, however. I've tried outputting as .mov, as .gif, as premultiplied vs straight alpha... no joy. Can someone explain (or point me to an explanation) of how Keynote differs from other programs in its handling of transparency? What am I missing?

    Using a TYPE_INT_ARGB BufferedImage worked beautifully. I had played around with Image for hours, but it never occurred to me that BufferedImage would be needed. :)
    many, many thanks,
    Steven

  • How does one deal with transparency in a placed file in InDesign?

    I suppose this may seem elementary, but I'm relatively new to it so here goes:
    First off, my print shop says that placed images should be in EPS format. I'm creating my files in Illustrator and some of them use a gradient mask to fade an object away. When saved as an EPS, the gradient mask shows as a white box instead of fading into the background. When I copy/paste my Illustrator image into a new Photoshop file, save it as a PSD, bring that PSD into Illustrator and save it as an EPS, the whole file is in a white box.
    Example. I want those aisle markers to not be in white boxes.

    How does one deal with transparency in a placed image in InDesign?
    Thanks.

    If possible, one finds a new printer who can handle your files properly and doesn't insist on .eps.
    What format are you delivering to the Printer? If it's anything other than PDF (and that's at their request) all the more reason to reread the first sentence. Why on earth are you moving things from Illustrator to Photoshop and back to Illustrator? Either one of those will save as .eps (ugh), though you need to use a clipping path for transparent areas coming out of photoshop (don't really know how Illy handles it when you say to save .eps with transparent background), but you are FAR better off with either native .AI or .PSD, both of which support transparencey, unlike .eps.If yo are delivering PDF, as you should be, it makes no difference to the printer what format the placed content uses (and it shouldn't matter to him even with native files unless he's hopelessly stuck in the 90s).
    In any event, when importing from Illustrator, make sure to show the import options and check the transparent background box.

    Hi experts!
    I use ECC 6.0 and CRM 7.0.
    I have to create CRM complaints (ZCLR - CLRP) with reference to ecc billing documents.
    I read the following topics and help:
    1. How to create complaints with referenceto ECC Billing document
    2. Re: How can we transfer billing documents from SAP ERP to CRM 2007?
    3. http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm70/helpdata/en/46/029ba32e675c1ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm
    Made these settings:
    1. Define the Business object type
    Goto SPRO>CRM>Transaction>Settings for Complaints>Integration>Trnsaction Referencing>Define Object types for Transaction reference
    2. Assign Business Object Types to Transaction Types
    Goto SPRO>CRM>Transaction>Settings for Complaints>Integration>Trnsaction Referencing>Assign Business Object Types to Transaction Types
    3. Implement a BADI - CRM_COPY_BADI_EXTERN.Check Implementation CRM_COPY_BADI_BILLDO for more information on the coding for referencing the ECC Billing document.

    but still do not know,
    1) if I should pre-replicate billing documents into CRM ?
    2) Or, the system uses the RFC to find these documents in ECC to create reference?

    Hi,
    SE38 -> Enter program
    Select Variants button and display. In the next screen, enter a variant name, (If not existing , press Create to create new one), else click on Change.
    Now the selection screen will display with a button "Variant Attributes" at the top.
    Click on that button.
    In the next screen, go to the selection variable column of the date field. Press F4 or drop down and select 'D' for date maintenance.
    In the column "Name of Variable (Input Only Using F4)" press F4 or drop down, select whichever kind of date calculation you want and save the variant.
    Now whenever you run the prgrm with this variant, date will be displayed by default.

    If you look around the forum for a bit, you will see that there is no notion of file systems on JavaCards (lexdabear posted this information less than two hours ago :-)). To store files, you will have to write an applet to hold byte arrays of the required size and handle receiving and sending of these.
    As for documentation, you should have a look at the GP (General Platform) specification at http://www.globalplatform.org/, which defines communication between smart cards and other devices, as well as Sun's own JavaCard pages (http://java.sun.com/products/javacard/), which contain several useful resources on JavaCards.

  • How to create Vector with reference to Collection

    hello experts,
    can someone let me know how to create vector with reference to Collection interface.
    Collection is an interface. and we cant create an instance of it. i'm not clear of what to pass in that constructor.
    Vector v = new Vector (Collection c);
    what are the possible objects of 'c'
    post some example code please.
    thanks

    Ever heard of reading the javadocs?
    "Collection is an interface. and we cant create an instance of it." - you don't understand interfaces, then.
    // I certainly can create a Collection - here's one
    Collection c = new ArrayList();
    // Now I'll add some Strings to my Collection.
    c.add("foo");
    c.add("bar");
    c.add("baz");
    // Now I'll make a Vector out of it.
    Vector v = new Vector(c);%
