How do I make a dotted line in Illustrator?

I've figured out how to make a dashed line (under Stroke), but how do I make a dotted line? Little round circles, one after the other that I can resize, turn into a circle, stick to a path?
Thanks

The string of pearls was done on CS2
The orange "pearls" had a stroke weight of 40 pt, Dash 0, Gap 42 and a new black stroke behind with a weight of 42 pt.
Then the stroke was copied, coloured just white and moved a bit to make the white "highlights". Weight 10 pt, Dash 0, Gap 42.
I suppose, if one could be bothered, it would be possible to make a string of pearls with alternating big and small pearls by using a combination of dash settings on New Strokes. Should work all right as long as the Dash is a constant or an exact multiple. I can't be bothered!
I don't understand that bit about having the last gap as 0. The pearls came out fine with just one setting for the dash and one for the gap. The other boxes weren't filled in.

        g2.drawString(strBottom, 2, (h / 2) + 2);

How to make the last line of the textarea visible all the time?

Hello,
I am making an online chat application in JSP and XHTML. The chat log and online users� names textareas are refreshed every 5 seconds. When it comes to many messages in the chat log textarea, the scrollbar appears. Then, every time the chat log textarea is refreshed, I need to move the scrollbar down to see the last line of the textarea.
Are there any ideas how to make the last line of the textarea visible all the time without moving the scrollbar?
Thanks in advance.
Dan

I put the below code on the page, but it didn't work.
Are there any ideas? Thanks.
<table border="0" cellspacing="1">
<tr>
<th>Chat Log</th>
<th>Users now online</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><textarea rows="20" cols="60" name = "messages" readonly = "readonly"><%= texts %></textarea></td>
<td><textarea rows="20" cols="20" name = "names" readonly = "readonly"><%= names %></textarea></td>
</tr>

How to remove weird dotted lines?

I have some weird dotted lines bordering around a white part in my brochure, the screenshot well explain it better. How can I remove these? They come out when I print my brouchure out.
Also I have to manually make it double sided, clicking two sided makes the inside upside down? How do I fix this? I have HP envy 110 series
If you cant see the picture click here: http://i49.tinypic.com/35cn9s6.png

Regarding the two-sided printing, I don't know the details of HP's print drivers, but both my Brother and my Canon printer have two-sided printing, and when setting it up , I have to choose between "Long-edge binding" (the default, which is usually for vertically oriented documents) and "Short-edge binding."
A typical brochure, which is usually horizontally oriented (until you fold it), would use "Short-edge binding" or whatever HP's terminology is for that setting.
The wrong setting will result in the one side being upside down.

How to make a straight line of points in a curve in CS6

In PSCS5 and earlier, I used to be able to make a straight line of points in a curve by placing 9 points on the straight line curve. I did this by drawing a small straight line at the bottom of the curve using the pencil tool and then clicking the curve point icon.
I can't seem to do this with CS6. Any thoughts?
Thanks,

How to make a horizontal line in java html browser?? without hr

I use java html browser
I want to make a black horizontal line
the <hr> line is not good
for my customer it seems that there is a double spacing in this case
I tried to write
<td style = "BORDER-BOTTOM: 1px solid #000000"> ...
but it does not work
I suppose this style is not supported by the default StyleSheet
I tried to write
<td bgcolor="black" height=1>
but the table has all rows with equal sizes
therefore the real height is too big
Please help me
I tried to write
<table border="1">... </table>
even in this case I have table without any border

Hi,
the best way might be to use a blind table with all cells set to have a border on the bottom. The problem is that the standard Java runtime does not render such setting automatically. There is plenty of work involved to adapt it and still it then would work only in the adapted version and not the standard runtime environment.
Anyway, you can find a working example of how to accomplish individual borders around table cells in open source application SimplyHTML at http://www.lightdev.com/dev/sh.htm

How to make several copies of a shape follow a motion path

Hi all! Does anyone have an idea for this:
I have drawn a "highway" using the bezier tool - I want a lot of circleshapes to follow this highway to indicate a current flowing. I have the circle shape and with the motion path behaviour I can make it follow the shape. Now I want a lot of cirlces to do the same so the highway is filled with the circles repeating over and over. I have tried some different setting an emitter with motion path but it doesn't work.
I would think that this illustration is quite common so maybe some of yo could give me a clue on how to do this??
Morten

Hi.
I tried it using the Replicator:
Create the highway.
Create a Circle.
Replicator settings:
Shape> Geometry.
Shape Source>your highway Shape.
Points>27
Offset: assign a Ramp Behaviour. Start Value 0%. End Value: 191%. This moves the circles along the highway.
Tweak to taste.

How to make a new line item appear in a sales order in VA01 transaction?

Dear All,
I am trying to create a SO with single line item with quantity 100.
Upon hitting the 'Enter' key, if the available quantity is less than the requested quantity (say 20), it takes me to an availabilty control screen which has a push-button 'One-time delivery' on the application tool bar.
Upon clicking on this button, it takes me back to the main screen of VA01 where I currently see only one line item with quantity 100 and confirmed quantity 20.
My requirement here is to make two line items appear, one with quantity 20 and the other with quantity 80, once I navigate back to the main screen of VA01 after clicking on the push-button 'One-time delivery'.
Please provide me your valuable inputs. Any kind of help is highly appreciated.
Useful answers never go unrewarded.
Regards,
Sreekanth Reddy B.

Hi Sreekanth ,
creating line items based on the confirmation qty can be done thru config, not thru ABAP,standard SAP will gives you options to create a new line item for unconfirmed qtys.
check with ur functional consultant or try to post in SD /APO forums.

How to make a vector into a shaper of transparency on a layer rather than shape of layer?

I'm working on a drawing that somehow I've created a layer on -- all blue, that has what looks like a vector mask
over it, but the vector mask, instead of shaping the layer, creates a transparancy in the layer.
And I don't know how to reproduce this effect!
Every time I create a vector mask, it shapes the layer.
If I take that vector looking mask on that layer, and try to copy it to another layer -- it shapes the layer!
If I copy it back to the original layer -- it shapes the original layer...
So there's something about the vector mask that says the shape of the layer is everything on the 'outside' of the vector.
How in the heck!? The 'invert' button is not available when you go into 'masks' and look at the vector masks.
So how might I recreate this type of transparency mask? It's driving me crazy, cuz there it is -- just like I want it, but I can't
reproduce it! I've tried dup'ing the blend settings on the layer-- but they don't seem to have an effect.
Ideas?

Thanks!
I looked through the reference docs and couldn't find anything on how to do this. Is it in the reference docs anywhere, do you know? Or is just another one of those things that people learn, but Adobe doesn't document.
I can see if someone has 'grown up w/photoshop' and realizes what tools are "orthogonal" to other tools of those, which can have their settings altered to do something meaninful with the primary tool, it could be a powerful tool (and is touted as being so), but if you don't know the interconnects, it doesn't seem like they are well documented in the reference manual.
I wonder if Adobe might consider having someone like Grinder and Bandler** write a manual to bring people 'into' the photoshop world -- to
give people an awareness of which tools were orthogonal and retrain someone's mind to think in terms of building up an effect by combining different aspects of orthogonal tools. I wonder if it would even be possible to write such a book...(just some late sunday musings).

How to make a photo as circle shape ?

I am trying to sublimate my desk clock and it is round with 4.75" is there a way I can do the image exactly as the templates
thanks

Thanks for your info input yes the template doesn't have transparency how I could do that I think this will solve the issue Many thanks
Like I said. It depends. You could put the template layer at the top of the stack, with blend mode set to Multiply, but it depends the tonal vals of each layer at any particular location. You could use Blend if in Layer Styles, or make an Alpha channel from the template — if the background of the template layer is pure white, and of these methods will work for you.
Try it. If it doesn't work, you'll need to upload screen shots to show us what you are working with.

How to make type flow with the shape of an object?

Hi there,
I am a bit of an Illustrator newbie. I am needing some help to work out how to wrap or manipulate type to fit the shape and flow of an object? I have attached an image to show you what I am trying to do. I want the "shop by measure" text to be in the yellow blank space of the tape measure but flowing with the shape of the tape. Any help appreciated! Be gentle please lol.

See online help. Read about Envelope Distortion. Then keep things simple as you experiment. This takes about 2 minutes.
When doing "ribbon distortions," selecting corresponding top and bottom MeshPoints as pairs and moving/scaling/rotating them together helps avoid things getting all distorted out of control. See this PDF for an example. The example was done using a 1 Row, 2 Column Mesh.

How to make an anchored line for a sign-up sheet?

I work for a small non-profit, and, as such, I wear many (too many?) hats. I have no other experience with Adobe products (except for a very short intro class to InDesign), so I apologize in advance if this is an obvious question!
SO, I often need to make documents (sign up sheets, donation forms, etc.) where I need to have something like this:
Name: _____________________________
Phone: _____________________________ (etc...)
What is the best way to do this in InDesign without just putting in a line?!?! Lines (as far as I can figure out) are not "fixed" (anchored?), so when I want to copy or move the text box or move down the "Name" title (or a lot of other things), the line does not move along with it and I have to spend a ridiculous amount of time making and re-making lines. There must be an easier way to do this, right?
Thank you so much!!!

I was on my way out the door when I posted earlier, so I didn't tell you as much as I could have.
Absolutely make use of right-indent tabs where they work. I also often use a space or thin space between the text and the tab to provide a separation between the text and the line. I usually use a character style to add the underline, and you can either use find/change to apply it after you are done, or if you're ambitious you can use a nested style.
If you want to use a nested style, start by applying none up to 1 ^t^y then the underline style through 1 ^t^y and finally repeat the last two styles. ^t is the metacharacter for a tab and ^y is the metacharacter for a right indent tab, and both are probably in the list of things you can select in the dialog, but now you know in case they aren't. One of the quirks of nested styles is that if you add more than one character to the trigger, ID will use the first one it finds from the list, so by adding BOTH types of tabs ID will find both a regular and right indent tab, or several regular tabs, on the same line, using the same nested style.

How to make L-shaped lines?

Hi all,
as I'm rather new to Java I'm facing the follwing problem:
I've managed somehow to draw some lines on a JPanel. Now I'd like to click on any line and after the click a little point should appear on the chosen line. Then, dragging that point, the straight line should become an L-shaped line.
Again, as I'm new to Java I really don't know how to perform this task.
Any pieces of code, suggestions or whatever are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Hannes

Hi Hannes,
I am still not sure about what you want but this should help you with the techniques you might need. Please look at this applet and let me know.
Duke dollars are highly appreciated... :)
