I can't change the color of this vectorimage without changing the vectorimage

Hello,
I have a strange problem. I designed this logo but it is impossible to change the color http://www.acmeurope.com/logocolor.ai . The strokes change then completely. And when undoing, the original form is lost.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Best regards,
Dirk

Hi Dirk--no idea either. Deleting the copy below the artboard didn't do it for me. Strange. But I wouldn't have built it this way either, not understanding how it was built in the first place.
I redrew it with round butt caps on another layer. It is stable.
Take care, Mike

  • Can you change the color of an image without changing it in photoshop first?

    I have created a link for Indesign using Photoshop. It is basically a plain black graphic that is placed over an aerial to highlight the represented water. It is possible to change the color of this graphic without actually going back into photoshop?

    Another option is to make a path around the image, so that you have a vector shape with full control over fill and transparency.
    You can do the path in Ps, save as clipping path, bring into InD, position, convert clipping path to frame, select and delete content, fill, fade...
    It may be easier to do the path in InD, but perhaps accurate positioning over the area you're after would be an issue.

  • How can I change a color of an image without affecting the texture, but based on a pantone pick?

    Here is an image of a paintbrush stroke that shows the texture of the paint.  I want to change the color to a specific pantone green in order to match a specific color pallet.  Rather than just using hue saturation to "guess" at the color (no pantone number), is there a way I can actually set a base color without losing the texture?

    You can only use the picker values as a guide on an image with many tones.
    I presume you are going to print as cmyk, so find the mix of the target colour and make a 'solid colour' adjustment layer and choose that mix. Then set the adj layer properties to 'hue' which should do it.
    Otherwise, add a 'hue/saturation' layer (and click on colorize in the adj layer palette) and move the slider to suit.
    If you convert to greyscale, you could colorize the pic with the spot colour too.

  • I am former PC person. Could view folder content based on a picture of an item in the folder. Can folder in imac be viewed this way without opening the folder?

    New to Apple and imac. With a PC, I could view a folder's contents as 4 files from within would be viewable on the folder itself. With the imac, I cannot see what is in the folder without opening it first. Is this possible as that was very convenient.

  • How can I change the color in this "pieces"

    Hello guys, I'm new in the forum and I'm searching for help.
    I'm using a free template that I downloaded from
    the internet but I'm having a small problem.
    When I put the logo that I want use in the template, the color is not the original one,
    after some minutes trying to discover how I could change it to the original version of the logo, I found an option on "fill" with a color that I could change..
    the problem is that when I change the color, all the logo changes in the same time, so I created 2 logos.. one of then only with the dark color and the other with the red color
    so with this method I could change both colors on this "fill" option and all would be okai.
    the problem is that both of the logos are changing in the same time.
    I need to change the X to RED and the Moto to Black
    Another problem that I have is : the little pieces of the logo that come all togheter, they are all black.. and i need to change it to the right color.
    cause the text are in one color and the pieces are all black.

    I did it, but i saw that Fill effect is a little "Shadow" behing the text... just for a small white line... I'm almost done with this intro, now I'm trying to find out how can I change the color from the X and MOTO
    cause when I change the color, both changes, and this can't happen.
    I need the X red and the Moto dark...
    I made 2 compositions ... one with just the X  X red.. and another with just Moto in dark color... but I don't know how to put this 2 compositions in 1 composition.

    That Apple Genius is full of crap.
    The paint is applied in a special electro static process to bond with the metal, like how appliances are painted. It's fogged on so light and with so many drying steps in between it can't run.
    Also the cover is removed from the rest of the electronics and painted separately, not the whole machine.
    Big feat for paint to "run" after it's been dry and baked.
    Why it voids the warranty, the computer is disassembled.

    You cannot use the Japanese iTunes Store unless are physically present there and have a Japanese payment method. This applies even for free apps; you cannot get them from the Japanese iTunes Store if you are in the US.
    If you are in Japan, you can set up a new iTunes Store account just to get free apps. See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is  critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
    If you have moved to Japan and wish to change the country of your account permanently, you can contact the iTunes Store and ask them to clear your remaining balance. You will need to be able to provide a Japanese payment method, though.

  • I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing a San Disc adapter that I plug into the side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed?

    I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing the presence of a San Disc (SDHC) adapter that I plug into the left side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed? I can't upload my images to a folder.

    Another item I'd found when getting an SD card for an older camera was the lack of backward support from the SD card if it was too new, while a newer camera can sometimes use an older SD card at a slower read-write speed. There are limits and ceilings on what kind of card works with old/new stuff.
    So I ended up taking a nice SD card back to one store and had to settle on a 'walmart kinda dubious kingston two pack a cure' for the older Panasonic Lumix. Smaller capacity but seems to work OK for the era. I don't trust kingston with macs, but this 10 y/o Lumix seems to not care about that.
    Hopefully you can obtain the correct cards, because some stores only sell parts for their inventory of cameras. And some adapters are limited too.
    Depending on what I'm doing with the card and the camera it goes with, I attach the camera to the computer and not just the card in a reader. That way I can file items inside the camera SD card in a way the camera won't overwrite them. Later when I save everything from the card into an external hard disk drive, all my filed folders of images by date (I created in the SD) appear in order, in the later archive. Easier too, when I burn to DVD or CD media, to create yet another archive away from the computer or the camera.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I rearrange the pages in a PDF without changing the assigned paged numbers.

    How can I rearrange the pages in a PDF without changing the assigned paged numbers? These correspond to the original document folio numbers.

    In theory it would be possible to 'record and play back' the page numbers using a folder-level script, but it's far from trivial. You would have to use the doc.movePage() function - presumably driven by a dialog box - to do the page shuffling so there was a way to track what was being done, then swap the page 'labels' of the two affected pages. That's where it gets messy.
    We have functions in the JSAPI which can read and write the page label, but they don't do things in a logical way. The 'getPageLabel()' function simply returns a string, but the 'setPageLabel()' method expects to be told the numbering scheme, prefix, etc. You'd have to parse the string and work out what scheme it was implementing.

  • How to make the color of one picture to be the same as another one

    I want to change the orange color of this button:
    to the dark blue(at the top) of this logo,
    How could I do this? I am not that familiar with photoshop, please show me the detailed steps if it is possible, thanks

    Hi there
    Below are instructions on how to recreate the gradient effect of the orange button using the dark blue color from the logo. It is difficult to change the color of a flattened gradient like the one in the orange button. However, recreating the button is a fairly simple process.
    Step 1: Open both the button and the logo in Photoshop.
    Step 2: Go to the logo image and select the Eyedropper tool from the tool bar, highlighted below. Then, click on the dark blue color in the logo.
    Step 3: Go back to the button image and go to your Layers Panel. Create a new layer using the icon highlighted below.
    Step 4: From the tool bar, select the Paint Bucket Tool, located directly below the eraser tool. If you don't see it, click and hold on the gradient tool and a submenu should pop out. With the Paint Bucket Tool selected, click on the canvas area to fill it with the dark blue color from the logo.
    Step 5: Create a new layer from the layers panel using the same process as Step 3.
    Step 6: Click and hold on the Paint Bucket Tool and select the Gradient Tool from the tool bar, as shown below.
    Step 7: At the top of your window, you should see the Gradient Tool menu. Select a transparent linear gradient, using the settings highlighted below.
    Step 8: Click on the dark bue color swatch in your toolbar to bring up the Color Picker dialog box. Drag the white circle in the color field to the upper left corner to select white. Click OK when you are done.
    Step 9: Now you can apply the gradient by clicking and dragging up over the button. Hold the shift button on your keyboard as you drag to create a perfectly vertical line. To create the gradient below, I started from just outside the canvas area and stopped around the middle of the button. This might take a few tries - if you mess up, hit control-Z (Windows) or command-Z (Mac) on your keyboard to undo.
    Step 10: Now that you have your gradient, go to the layers panel and use the Opacity slider in the upper right hand corner of the layers panel to reduce the opacity of the gradient.
    Step 11: Now you can delete the orange button layer by selecting the layer and clicking the delete icon shown below.
    There you go! Now you can save your button and use it as you'd like. If you ever need to change the color, just select the dark blue layer and use the paint bucket tool to fill it with whatever color you want. Below I have included a side-by-side comparison with the original orange button.
    If you have any further questions or need clarification, just ask!
    Good luck!
