Joining Paths (not solved untill now)

First a nice warm greetings from a cold north Germany to my Illustrator friends!
I have a problem since few months, as it comes again and again and as I couldnt find the answer in other forums, I write it now myself:
I selected 2 paths here (in total I have a lot more) and I would like to connect them in order to create a contour to make a clipping mask of a mesh to get a kind of a 3D feeling for this helicopter.
Normally I cut 1 line in between and then use the function "join" to connect the lines left and right, it works but takes a long time and works only for lines without handles.
Do u have any tipps?
Thx,
Thomas

Hi Thomas
yes CS 5 will join more than just two end points but you might find this plug in better with more options that give you some more control.
It is called Concatenate and it does exactly that cost like $10 USD. Very handy made especially for this purpose.
There is a link to Rick Johnson's site above but this link takes you directly to  Concatenate plug in for AI.
http://rj-graffix.com/software/plugins.html#concatenate
It works very well and will save you a lot of time and effort.
Rick has some other intresting plug ins and some are free.

  • Join Path not recording in action

    I'm trying to build an action in Illustrator CC (17.1) to post-process some vector files exported from a CAD package. The workflow is:
    Select All
    Object > Path > Join
    Effect > Path > Offset... (0.25mm)
    However, when recording the action only Select All is captured. The Join and Offset operations are performed on the artwork, but do not appear in the action. I've tried searching around for more details on Join used in actions, or limitations of actions, and haven't found any issues here.  I  would expect all of the basic object manipulations in the Object and Effects menus to be available for action recording, but it seems that may not be the case? Can anyone shed light on what's going on here?

    In the Actions panel menu, take a look at the Insert Menu Item command.

  • Flash files not working until now

    Does anyone of u still experienced t this kind of problem in their current handset especially in n8? I am still waiting your this problem to be fix until now

    oK, I think you are right... some of the files work and some do not... UGH and when I reimported, they said they were AS2... so far I'm not a fan of 5.5 but I'm sure it will grow on me... just don't like that things don't convert and I can't find some of the easiest things... they hid the X and Y coordinates when they used to be at the top of the screen... now they are under Transform? ok, I'll stop griping... for now...

  • Error creating request. Path not found

    Hi,
    We are trying to create a request in CUP. We have given input in all the mandatory fields like Requester Name, Manager Name, Application and we have selected Roles. Those roles were already assigned to approvers.
    When we press the APPROVE button, it is asking to Approve. After clicking APPROVER button, it is giving error like u201CError creating request. Path not foundu201D.
    Please check and advice me where we are missing while creating request in CUP.
    Thanks & Regards,
    KKRao.

    Hi Sabita/Alpesh,
    Thanks for your reply. We have created two conditions under Initiator with AND and AND. We have cleared and we are not getting error like Path not found.
    Now we are getting error like "Error creating request. Approver not found".
    We have selected the Manger name in the request which we have defined in the Custom Approver Determinater. Still we are getting the error like Approver not found.
    Please check and correct me.
    Regards,
    KKRao.

    Why my Apple ID not verified until now?

    I'm not sure that anybody here would know why. We aren't Apple employees. This is a user to user forum. If your ID is working now, I wouldn't worry about it. If you need help with something, just ask.

  • Referenced join path ___ does not have table '$2$' as endpoint

    Hi,
    We are trying to make one of our first views. I joined the schema in attach.
    The first part is a join between 3 tables: FMIFIIT and 2 dependent tables for further information.
    For the second part I made an analytical view on FMIFIIT making totals based on 3 secondary key fields.
    I would like to join the first view with the second one, so I can add total amounts to every detail line.
    But I always get an error when  activating the analytical view:
    <detail>
      <element>cubeSchema -> cubes -> cube (_SYS_BIC:kul.testing.kcl/AN_FMIFIIT_2/olap) -> characteristics -> dimension (BLDAT)</element>
      <code>41</code>
      <message>Referenced join path 'DATA_SLT_D11220:FMIFIHD' does not have table '$2$' as endpoint</message>
      </detail>
    I seems as if all 3 tables need to be fact-tables, and as I look at the definition that is not the case:
    <cubeTables>
      <cubeTable name="DATA_SLT_D11220:FMIFIHD" type="d-table"/>
      <cubeTable name="DATA_SLT_D11220:FMIFIIT" type="f-table"/>
      <cubeTable name="DATA_SLT_D11220:PRPS" type="d-table"/>
    </cubeTables>
    Is this 'TYPE' influenced by the presence of measures in it? And do all tables need to have measures in it?
    <measures>
      <measure name="FKBTR" table="DATA_SLT_D11220:FMIFIIT" column="FKBTR" aggregationType="sum" isVisible="true"/>
      <calculatedMeasure name="TOTBEDRAG" aggregationType="sum" isVisible="true" calculateBeforeAggregation="false" datatype="fixed" length="13" scale="2">
      <formula>"FKBTR"</formula>
      </calculatedMeasure>
      <calculatedMeasure name="BEDRAG54" aggregationType="sum" isVisible="true" calculateBeforeAggregation="false" datatype="fixed" length="13" scale="2">
      <formula>if("WRTTP"=''54'',"FKBTR",0)</formula>
      </calculatedMeasure>
      <calculatedMeasure name="BEDRAG57" aggregationType="sum" isVisible="true" calculateBeforeAggregation="false" datatype="fixed" length="13" scale="2">
      <formula>if("WRTTP"=''57'',"FKBTR",0)</formula>
      </calculatedMeasure>
    </measures>
    Can anyone advice on how I can solve this issue? It might be a issue with my design.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port.

    Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port...
    Someone told me just to remove the chip in clicking it to the trash can and voilá - it would be done. But as I did so, on the screen appeared a text which let me know, that that way had been the wrong one...
    I should have clicked Finder plus something.... which I do not now remember but which was then not found behind the Finder.
    So please would someone be so kind and tell me, where I can find explanations for the most simple functions. The manual I got does not include a clue.
    Thank you!

    First make sure that no application is using or has open any files on the disk. Then:
    Click and drag the disk icon on the desktop to the trash. Wait for the system to recognize the action, and the icon should disappear from the desktop. It is then safe to remove the device.
    Alternatively, you can secondary click on the disk icon, and then primary click "Eject (name of disk)". Wait for the icon to disappear off the desktop, and then it is safe to remove the drive.
    Here is a detailed help document on the subject.

  • I have an Ipod classic 30 GB U2 , it s been working fine for the past 3-4 years until now it starts to get stuck when navigating the menu or even when clicking something,Basically i am only able to use it as a storage device not its ipod features

    It is recognized via Itunes as IPOD and i am able to connect it through USB cable to the pc and manage its physical memory via My Computer. But the problem is I cannot use anything on it as an IPOD (Like Music video and note stuff inside it).It boots as saying its got low battery power and after a while "Do not disconnect" logo appears after it is charged, i am able to operate it as normal ipod but when i click something it gets hanged like a PC and it stays there until the battery is too low . No matter what button i press (Menu or play buttons) continuously or the combination to restart or reset its in the same static state,,no reaction...even when i connect it to the pc via USB or charger nothing happens ..it stays in the same screen whereever i navigated last. After all its power is used up the same process continues that i can use it as an external hard disk namely its 20 GB memory...
    Is there any way I can solve this problem via Itunes restore or any other used method to restore it to factory settings ?? ...I haven't used any method to restore it until now as i have migrated to IPAD,,,since then i've been using this as an external hard disk....may be if its restored to old condition i can carry this where ever i want unlike the massive IPAD...its like carrying a solar panel unlike an handy IPOD

    Hi mafiose15,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    You can find the instructions in this article:

  • While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and slide the scrub through songs.  This has always worked for me until now. I have not changed any settings

    While playing music on my iphone 5, i am now unable to play, pause, or skip songs while my phone is locked. I can still change the volume and scrub through songs.  This has always worked for me until now. As far as i know, i have not changed any settings.  This is whle my phone is locked both on the slide up toolbar/menu interface and on the normal screen before i slide to unlock.

    I skimmed through this very long post but from what I read, this sounds much more like a coverage issue with your network than a device issue.  I have not seen or heard of this issue before and I do not have this issue personnally and & I use the music app quite frequently while working in the yard.
    The DND feature should not be a factor at all if you're sure it's turned off.  I always recommend restarting your phone by holding down the home button + the lock button for 10-12 seconds until the Apple logo appears.  Once the phone reboots, do a test to see if this has helped to resolve the issue.
    If not, go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.  Then, test it out again.  Post back if neither of these solutions solve your issue.

  • I gave my ipad 2 to my brother last month. After that he erased all content and settings, sign in with his apple id. The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

    I gave my ipad 2 to my brother last month. After that he erased all content and settings, sign in with his apple id. The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. I had create new apple id, change my password, delete the icloud acc. But still I can not update my apps. I have many of red notifications on iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

    1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
    2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
    Is your iPad working?

  • Hi, my Macbook says its connected to the internet, but it's not working.  It's about 2 years old and has been fine up until now.  Its the same internet provider and I have a work PC laptop that is connecting fine.  Any help greatly appreciated.  Liz

    Hi,
    My MacBook Pro won't connect to the internet, although it says it is connected.  The laptop is about 2 years old and up until now has worked fine.  My work PC laptop is connecting to the internet fine so I know it can't be the connection.   I've checked for Adware/Malware (just in case) via safemac and that all seems fine.
    I'm running OSX 10.8.5.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks

    Believe it or not, that article helped me find a temporary solution. After reading it I realized that the problem did have to do with my DNS settings. I had taken the DNS settings that my ISP gives me when I dial up and plugged them into the configuration for my AirPort card. This apparently caused a problem because, although my wireless network is always on, it's not always connected to the internet. So those DNS settings were invalid most of the time.
    I found that as long as I leave the area for DNS servers blank, the computer logs in normally. This further confirms my suspicion that something was trying to access the internet at login. I guess as long as I don't specify any DNS servers, the computer realizes it doesn't have an internet connection through my AirPort card.
    So I just created two network locations: one for when my network is connected to the internet and one for when it isn't. In the first, I kept my original DNS settings because they work as long as I have an internet connection. In the second I did not specify any DNS servers. This seems to work fine, but I'd still like to know what is trying to access the internet at login. I've disabled the automatic update feature in all my programs that have it, but that doesn't seem to help the slowdown at login. Does anyone know how I could figure out what program is trying to access the internet?

How can I download the software I purchased so long ago? I hope it is not money down the drain. Is there any phone number available so I can talk to an Adobe employee?

    Which version of Design Standard are you asking about?  I don't think any Creative Suite packages existed in 1993.  I think the first CS came out in 2003.

    Hello, it's been 5 days now since my imessage has not working..and i have chatted to the costumer for two times. I took thier advice and instructions just to enable to send and receive on it but unfortunately until now its still NOT working. Is there anybody who could help me please?

    Try this even if you have already.  Just make sure to follow the steps specifically.
    Go to settings > Facetime > send and recieve > tap on your apple id and sign out.  If your not signed in then that will work as well.
    Go to settings > Messages > sent and recieve > tap on your apple id and sign out.
    Restart the iPad by doing the slide to power off setup.  Just hold the power button on the top right till it turns off.
    After the iPad has been restarted:
    Go to settings > Facetime > and sign in
    Go to settings > Messages > and sign in
    Wait about 3 min then restart the iPad again.  Same instructions as above.
    When you restart you should be able to use messages again.  If not then call support again and talk to someone higher than the first level support they have.
