How to edit a line in illustrator?

I am making a coat of arms and the line goes beyond the frame. If I use eraser the white marks are left on the document and there is no background on this image so how do I edit those lines to show nothing when edited?

Edward,
As I (mis)understand it, you may, View Smart Guides are your friends:
1) Select the line in question;
2) With the Scissors Tool hover over the each of the spots where the line crosses the frame, and Click when Smart Guides say path, or anchor if it crosses the frame at an Anchor Point; this should cut the line at the crossings;
3) Delete the outlying parts of the line.

    The IP address needs to be changed, i have a hamachi server and a server for home but i need to change this to my ip address on my computer wich is 192.168.1.74. This needs to be changed back and forth so how can i make a batch that just runs and then done its been changed.

    There are no .bat files in a Unix environment
    #!/usr/bin/env bash
    export NEW_IP=192.168.1.74
    perl -ni -e '

    Make sure you change the file's protections so they are executable
    chmod +x nameof_yourscript
    There are other ways to do this, I just choose a perl script within a bash script. You could do it all with a bash script, you could use awk, you could use sed, you could use python, ruby, etc...

  • How do you transfer line art from Illustrator to Photoshop?

    I created a set of icons in illustrator and would like to move them to photoshop as shape layers. The icons are created from the strokes of shapes, and when I paste them into photoshop, the shape fills in and I lose the stroke. I could add a stroke in photoshop, but it misses any internal strokes that I have drawn. I could plate them as smart objects, but I would prefer them to be shape layers. How can I get these icons into photoshop?

    Dear vbach: If by "Line art" you mean Line art in the original sense, i.e., black lines on a white background, I've been doing it for twenty-odd years, copying from AI to PS. It's gotten better lately with the shaped lines now available in AI. I don't have to outline anything. Select lines in Illustrator, copy, switch to PS, and paste into a new or existing file. See attached half-size jpeg. Is this what you mean?

  • How to edit email message suject line?

    I am wondering how to edit the incoming email's suject line with javamail api?
    and which api defines the subject line of an email?
    regards
    Gaz

    The simple answer is "you can't".
    Mail servers don't allow you to change messages.
    What you can do is make a copy of the message and change the copy.
    Of course, the copy won't be stored anywhere permanently so if you want
    to keep it you'll need to store it in a folder yourself.
    In your second question are you asking about the getSubject method?
    Since that's such an obvious answer to your question I'm sure you would've
    found that yourself so I'm assuming you're asking something else, but I don't
    understand what.

  • How to edit PPD List Illustrator CS3?

    Hi all,
    Recently updated a printer driver, which has resulted in a really long PPD list through which I have to scroll when I send something
 to print. I know in Quark there's a way that one can edit the list by turning off unwanted PPDs. Is this possible in Illustrator? a
nd how might I do it? 


    This is probably really simple, but I'm relatively new to CS3 so anyone who could enlighten me would be appreciated.
    Thanks, 
Siobhan.

    Mac OS X 10.4.11

    You will have to teach your user how to edit the source in an
    external application.
    Make it possible:
    1. Edit, Administer websites
    2. Users and Roles, pick the proper role, Edit Role Settings
    3. go to Editing and check 'Allow users to edit source in
    external application'
    To adjust which application:
    1. Edit, Preferences
    2. File editors
    3. pick Web page Source
    4. adjust the setting as you like with the program you

  • Adobe illustrator How to edit my photo Template

    Can anyone tell me how to edit the photo blocks on my Template.
    Someone made me a template in adobe illustrator and i can't seem to edit the blocks to add photos instead of the other images.
    Thank You

    This is the way I would do it. (see image below)
    Place image.
    Live trace - alter dialogue boxes to your preference etc, select OK
    Keep image elected - expand
    Keep selected - select fill colour and click 'none' and select stroke and give a colour/black and a small pt size.
    You should have a outline face/image with no fill and just a stroke.

  • How to measure an angle in Illustrator??? HELP!

    Hi,
    I have a big problem that seems very easy, but I can't find a solution on internet. The problem is. I have a rectangle, all angles are 90 degrees, I know that. But how can I make Illustrator to measure this???? Using Window - info I really don't know how to do it? Is it in another place? This is a basic feature I think and I can't believe it's not possible. Please let me know or I will go crazy before Easter.
    If you happen to know how to do it, I have also another question. How can I measure something in Illustrator so that it leaves a measurement on the screen, like in Corel, if I measure something, a distance for example it shows it on the screen and it stays on the paper, so if I print it, I have it. In Illustrator, I only can see it in information window, but how can I make it to stay and be printed??
    Thank you.
    Tomasz

    Silly as it is...
    Illustrator's Measure tool is useless garbage. The Line Tool makes a better measuring tool.
    1. Make sure Snap to Points and/or SmartGuides is on.
    2. Line Tool: Drag to draw a "line" (it's actually a path) connecting the two points bwtween which you want to measure the angle.
    3. Delete.
    4. DoubleClick the Line tool. The resulting dialog will tell you the angle and length of the path you just drew.
    Illustrator has never provided a proper dimensions toolset, as is taken for granted in programs like Draw and Canvas (just as it has never provided such basics as geometric primitive objects with editable parameters, like rounded rectangles on which you can change the radii, or polygons on which you can change the number of sides, or arcs on which you can change the angular sweep...)
    My JET_DimensionLines.jsx script is a cumbersome workaround for only the very simplest kind of linear dimensions. It will not help you label angles.
    I'd highly recommend your keeping that copy of Draw up-to-date and continue to use it. There is no law that you can only use one drawing program. And Illustrator is a very antequated program that falls very short in too many very basic functions.

  • How to edit text in JPG image downloaded from Shutterstock? [was: help]

    I downloaded a jpeg image from shutterstock.com to use for my baby shower invitation and was told that I would be able to erase the example text and add my own using adobe illustrator but having a hard time figuring this out. Please help.

    daynam60128295 wrote:

    You were mislead. Text in a flattened raster image (your JPEG) is essentially "burned in" and not editable or erasable in Illustrator. It is true that you could set type over (in front of) an image with Illustrator.
    It may be possible to achieve the end result you want, but without seeing the image, it would be difficult to tell you how to proceed. Can you post a screenshot?

  • How can I export an Adobe illustrator CC .AI file to a DWG or DXF file suitable for SolidWorks?

    Hi
    Can anyone help?
    How can I export an Adobe illustrator CC .AI file to a DWG or DXF file,  without SolidWorks enlarging the file & converting every curve into hundreds of short little straight lines rather than a single continuous line/s.
    I have made sure the file is ungrouped or has any compound paths or colours.
    Opening it in Autocad 2010 still converts the DWG file into hundreds of short little straight lines!
    The file is needed to laser cut out an aluminium shape using SolidWorks 2008 (Metal soft)?
    Formats they can handle are:
    DWG, DXF, IGES, IGA
    There must be a way to export it without re-drawing the whole design in Soildworks again!!??
    Can anyone help?
    INCA

    Not really. This is a limitation you will have to live with. Unless you are extremely careful, most paths will be converted to polyline segments by AI and in particular in AI CC this is somehow busted, so it happens more often. You might have much more luck opening a native AI file in DraftSight or a 2D CAD program like TurboCAD and exporting a DWG or 2D IGES/ STEP file from there. The sizing issue is a different matter, but without knowing what units you actualyl used, nobody can advise.

  • Can't figure out how to edit a Draft e-mail message--simple, right? Wrong.

    OK, sorry if this is too basic and belongs in the Getting Started folder, but I couldn't find the problem here or in that location.
    I thought I could figure out how to edit a message in the Drafts folder. I tried; it didn't work. I looked online, found a tutorial, which showed that I was indeed trying to do the right thing the right way. So why doesn't it work????
    Here's what happens.
    I start an e-mail message, click Cancel, then save as a Draft. That works fine. But then...
    From the Home screen, I tap Mail.
    On the Mailboxes screen, I tap Drafts (there's a number on the right -- 2 -- which disagrees with the number of messages actually seen -- 1 -- at the next step; I don't know if that's an important detail or not).
    I see the draft message I want to edit. I tap it.
    I tap Edit. According to the tutorial, the message is supposed to open up for me to edit further. But it doesn't. Instead...
    The two lines representing the message (Recipient and first few words) move a bit to the right, and the Edit button changes to Cancel.
    A dull red Delete button and a blue-gray Move button show up at the bottom. But the first line of the draft message, which has (accurately) shown up under the boldface "(No Recipient)" line, stays where it is -- showing as part of an entry in the list but not as something I can edit. I don't see the complete message, and I can't edit anything, even though I think I have just entered an Edit mode.
    I click those two lines, and a red checkmark appears on the left, and the dull buttons at the bottom become brighter red and brighter blue-gray.
    Tapping, double-tapping, tap-and-holding... all just toggle that checkmark on and off.
    THIS MUST BE REALLY SIMPLE... HOW DO I EDIT THE TEXT OF THE DRAFT MESSAGE????

    Zero replies??? Wow, I guess this is a really uncommon problem.
    Well, the Genius Bar fixed the problem. They confirmed that it WAS real, and they couldn't figure out how it had gotten that way. There must have been some internal list in an inconsistent state... or something.
    The fix was to deactivate my MobileMe account on my iPhone -- just wipe it out. Then they re-activated it. Everything re-synched and the problem was gone.

  • How to edit an XML file?

    Guys, I have a podcast in iTunes, I want to start to promote it. In order to do this, I think I will have to put tags in the XML file for different sites and I would like to know how to edit this. Does anyone have any good places for me to check out how to do this?
    Thanks!

    Vinnie, thanks for getting back to me on this, I am pulling my hair out!
    What FAQ are you speaking of? The one in iTunes or someplace on this board?
    By claim, what I mean is this. Lets say I try to add my podcast to Podcast Alley's directory. If I copy and paste my RSS feed in there, it says that it needs me to add their "tag" or whatever in my RSS so they know it is my podcast. They need me to add this line in the XML file I think to "claim" my podcast so it will show up in their directory. This seems to be a common thing with other sites as they give me some XML code to add to my RSS also.
    Make sense at all?

    I think <xsl:text>#xa;</xsl:text> should do the trick, but depending on which OS (ux or win), the "new line" chars sequence is different (win would require a CRLF like <xsl:text>#xd;*#xa;</xsl:text>)

  • How to edit a clip in a multicam sequence (CS6)?

    I am using Premiere CS6 on Mac, I have a multicam sequence set up (2 cam).
    I just want to color correct cam 2 to match cam 1 and I cannot figure it out. Everything I try applies the correction to the entire sequence.
    If someone can provide exact steps to apply color correction to one clip in the sequence only (it's just brightness/contract, nothing complicated), so that it's reflected in the multicam sequence I'd be grateful. Even a link to a tutorial would be good as I cannot seem to find it online (almost everything points to CC which I don't use and is totally different than CS6).
    Please help!

    Ok, I finally figured it out, no thanks to Adobe's crap "Help" system, which is missing MANY steps...
    1. Right-click the Multi-Camera Source Sequence in the Project tab (NOT the multicam sequence you're editing). It's the one with the green/blue lines perfectly lined up.
    2. Choose Open in Timeline.
    3. In the Timeline, make the edits you want to the clip you want (in this case, Brightness/Contrast on clip 2)
    4. Go to Window > Multi-Camera Monitor
    5. You'll see your source clips stacked in the window, and you can fine tune from here.
    6. Click on the Multi-Camera Sequence you're editing in the Timeline, and the Monitor should update to reflect your changes.
    You can toggle back and forth between these sequences in the timeline, adjusting as you need.
    This was incredibly easy for me to document, I really fail to understand why the Help file couldn't be bothered. It's completely missing things like what the difference is between the source multicam sequence and the program multicam sequence, how to edit a clip in your multicam sequence, and how the multicam monitor works. Really pisspoor documentation, but at this point, I don't expect anything else from Adobe.

  • How to edit the list box items in labwindow/​CVI?

     how to edit the list box items in labwindow/CVI?

    Listbox items cannot be edited directly in the control: what you can do is to select a line an, transfer its content to a textbox control, edit text there and move text back to the listbox control. Available interactions with the listbox control are listed in the help.
    An alternative to it is to use a tree customized to appear like a listbox: tree item labels can be edited directly in the control, at least those in the base column of the tree. You can look at the example \samples\userint\treelist.cws that shows how a tree can be customized this way. I haven't opened it, but this old example too should show the ability to edit tree cells.
    Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
