How to fill shape with pattern... and cut outline?

I have an old plotter that works great for making drawings. I can fill a shape with a pattern, convert the pattern to outlines (or strokes) BUT my problem is that the outline of the original shape remains, and this will be plotted. I do not want an outline of the original shape, I want the pattern to create the shape. Any ideas? Also, shape stroke remains part of the art (even if stroke = none before object/expand/ungroup/divide)

aha!
made scribble
expanded scribble
put shape in front
select all, ctrl+7 (masked scribble to shape)
pathfinder/crop
solved. thanks! sishamDSS!

How can I fill mask with pattern?

Hi
Would you please help me? How can a add pattern to a mask? I drew a motion mask on video clip and now I want to fill it with pattern that I made in Photoshop and saved as PSD, what should I do? How can I fill mask with specific pattern?
Thanks for any help

AE doesn't directly support a pattern-fill like PS, so here's a workaround (as Mylenium suggested):
Create a PS document and create a layer filled with the pattern required.
Import the layer/PSD to AE and place in timeline.
Place a copy of the masked layer above the Pattern layer.
On the pattern layer, set the Track Matte to Alpha Matte.

How to fill tabs with textures?

Hi all,
I wondering how to fill tabs with textures, just like in the "Personal Budget" template.
I mean this:
How could I replicate this nice effect? Please help!
I already read the user manual but I won't be able to find a solution...

One way is to open the template and select the table with the fill pattern. Open the table inspector
highlight the Image fill cell (in the "Cell Background" section). Copy.
Now open the application Preview in the Applications folder. Select the menu item "File > New From Clipboard" to create a new document with the image you copied. Now save the image as a pdf using the menu item "File > Save..."
Save it with a name you can remember in a location of your choice.
Now select a table in some other Numbers document and set the table background to the image you just saved by using the Table Inspctor:

It may be due to Continuity
The following quote is from Connect your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch using Continuity
Turn off iPhone cellular calls
To turn off iPhone Cellular Calls on a device, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.

Yes, you can do it the same as any other database. The code would be similar.
I'd also suggest you not to use the JDBC ODBC bridge for connection. There are other drivers available for that.

Create a Z-table and fill it with value and transport everything

Hi
I would like to create a Z-table, fill it with values and then transport everything.
This table will not be updated in the productions system.
Delivery class = C Customizing table, maintenance only by cust., not SAP import
Data Browser/table view maint = Display/maintenance allowed
Field: MANDT, etc. etc.
Technical settings: Data class = APPL1, Size = 0, Buffering switched on, Fully buffered.
I also create the Table maintenance generator
When I fill my table with values, these will not be saved in my change request.
What I'm doing wrong?
Thanks // Peter B

After this save and activate.
Then goto
Utilities>TABLE CONTENTS>CREATE ENTERIES

Thanks!

Fill shape with pen tool

Hi there,
this might be a very simple question, but couldn't figure it out ..
I made a Title in Premiere and I want to draw a shape with the pen tool.
However this only results into a shape with line instead of it being filled.
So my question: how to draw a filled shape in Premiere Pro with the pen tool?
Thanks in advance

Set Graphic Type to Filled Bezier, that will fill the shape.

If they don't, you can select the paths that make up the
different areas
and try using Modify > Alter Path > Join or Modify
> Alter Path >
Union. You will probably need to remove some anchor points if
you choose
one of these options.
Are you aware of the Vector path tool which let's you draw a
path
freehand? That might be a better option than the Pen tool.

Create shape with round and square corners

Hi all
I haven't used illustrator for a while so I'm really stuck on soemthing that should be simple.
I want to create a shape that has round corners on the bottom and square cormers at the top.
I have created two shapes, one with round corners and one with square one.
I was hoping to put them together then use the pathfinder to unite them but this then make the round corner square.
Is it possible to unite shapes with different corners.

myttmt,
Or create a rounded rectangle that is one corner radius too high, press C (Scissors Tool) and cut at the top of the straight sides (first right then left), press V to switch to the Selection Tool and delete the selected top cut, then select the remaining part and Ctrl/Cmd+J to join.
The bottom rounded rectangle thread lives. Or is it the tanker cross section thread?

Fill shape with image

Hi,
I have drawn a curved box and wish to fill it with and image. I'm having trouble with this as the image is a rectangle and the box has curved edges. Is there any way which you can fill the box with the image. It will not matter if edges of the image are cut out.
Thanks in advance
Euan

> I'm having problems copying layers.
I take it this is a separate question? (no need to copy layers for what I suggested before)
Highlight a layer in the layers palette, then press CTRL+J (windows) or Command+J (Mac) if you want a duplicate.
Otherwise, highlight the layer, press CTRL+A (windows) or Command+A(Mac) , then CTRL+C (windows) or Command+C (Mac) and then you can paste it where you want.

Adobe Creative Cloud - How To Share Files With Clients and Colleagues | Creative Suite Podcast: Designers | Adobe TV

In this episode of the Adobe Creative Suite Podcast, Terry White shows how to share Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign Files with clients and colleagues and all they'll need is a browser to comment and see your Photoshop Layers.
http://adobe.ly/10ZjpE4

Terry,
I guess I miss something. How can I share a folder of photos? When I return from a shoot, I select 20 of the pictures and need to share them with my client to pick up the favorites. Am I supposed to copy and past an URL for each image separately?
Sometimes I also work with a colleague, I need to share my favorites with him. Same issue.
We have tried Adobe Cloud, and then went for Dropbox. There we can share a folder and he can put even his pictures in it as well. That's what I call collaboration. And it is free (unlike Adobe Cloud). If you have some word in Adobe, please tell them to either drop it and make a deal with services like Dropbox, or make it properly.
Thanks.

TYPES : BEGIN OF FS_OUTPUT .
 TEXT(20) TYPE C.
 INCLUDE STRUCTURE HRPDV_EXPIRED_Q.
TYPES TEXT(20) TYPE C.
TYPES END OF FS_OUTPUT.
DATA: fs_output like table of alv_output.
CLEAR WA_FIELDCAT.
WA_FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME = 'TEXT'.
WA_FIELDCAT-seltext_l = 'Abteilungs Struktur'.
wa_fieldcat-tabname = 'ALV_OUTPUT'.
WA_FIELDCAT-COL_POS = '13'.

loop at alv_output.
*alv_output-text(20) = 'abcdefgh'.
*modify alv_output.
*endloop.

hI..,
Your table declaration has to be like this..
TYPES : BEGIN OF FS_OUTPUT .
INCLUDE STRUCTURE HRPDV_EXPIRED_Q.
TYPES TEXT(20) TYPE C.
TYPES END OF FS_OUTPUT.
DATA: ALV_OUTPUT LIKE standard table of fs_output initial size 0.
loop at alv_output into fs_output.
fs_output-text(20) = 'abcdefgh'.
modify alv_output index sy-tabix from fs_output transporting text.
endloop.
Now give this table alv_output to the GRID_DISPLAY function module..
you will get the required output !!
Plz do remember to close the thread when ur problem is solved !!
reward all helpful answers !!
regards,
sai ramesh
