Newbe question, how do I create a fill from a png?

I'm new to illustrator. How do I take a png and turn it into a fill?
Thanks,
Bubba

If I understand you correctly you either drg it into the swatch panell and make it a pattern fill or pattern swatch if you wish to call it that.
Pattern fill with a relatively large placed image
Pattern Fill made with a small dimension placed image
Or you take the shaped path you want to fill place it on top of the image (place png) and selec both and then make it a clipping path Command 7 or Control 7 or Object>Clipping Mask>Make
Clipping path simialr to a patten fill made with a relatively large image

  • Newbi Question:  How does one create a similar page to this using APEX 3.1?

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a help document with screen shoots inside our APEX web application and I am hamstrung by the type of Region and Item objects available to me. When I tried to create HTML region I was limited to how much html characters I can put in the source. When I look into the item menu nothing seems to allow me to stick in large chunk of HTML code either.
    A little searching on this forum and I came across this page: http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm#t
    It is exactly the type of page I want to create with lots of text and screen shots and I presume that it is built within APEX? So my questions is: How did they do this? Did they use tools available within APEX or some external tool? Was all this outputted using BLOB and Htp("") and PL/SQL? I am trying hard to avoid having to do that.
    I was also unable to stick in an in image into my page using instruction from http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10513_01/doc/appdev.310/e10499/ui.htm#CBBHGJCH which left me pretty frustrated. (external amazon gif worked).
    Thanks for any help,
    Wayne

    Wayne,
    I am glad that you got images to display. I am not sure what kind of html report you want to display, there is a limit of number of characters in a region its 32767 characters, so if you want to display large html file you can create html region with no template and limit each region to 30,000 characters and create as many region as you want.
    If you want to display data from any table ( as per the first url) you can create SQL reports, something like
    select ename
         , deptno
         , sal
         , case
              when ename = 'SCOTT' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#us_flag.gif" alt="Image Title">'
              when ename = 'SMITH'  then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#chants.gif" alt="Image Title">'
              when ename = 'MARTIN' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#cloche.gif" alt="Image Title">'
              when ename = 'MILLER' then '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#chandelles.gif" alt="Image Title">'
              when ename = 'JONES' then  '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#shoe.gif" alt="Image Title">'
              else '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#hallo.gif" alt="Image Title">'
         end  image

  • Newbie question: how do I create a bokeh effect in PSE 8?

    I am having trouble getting a blurred background effect in a portrait.  Could someone please tell me how to do it. I've attached the example I am working on.  All I want to do is to blur down the bricks behind the man's head, but I cannot seem to do it by creating a duplicate layer and then using the blur filter. Thanks for any help you can give.

    The steps you describe are correct, so it sounds like a problem with the program. Is this a new problem or has it always been that way? Do you have this problem with other Blur tools or other Filters, or just the Gaussian Blur?  You might want to post another forum topic titled "problem with Gaussian Blur"; more users are likely to read and respond to it.
    You might try resetting the preferences file. This often corrects PSE problems which pop up for no apparant reason. I don't know if this works in PSE8, but there is how to do it in previous versions: Press and hold Option-Command-Shift immediately while starting PSE. The timing is critical; you may have to try this several times. A dialog box will pop up with the question "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Elements Settings file?" (or similar message depending on the PSE version).  Click  YES.
    Here are 2 sites which address the corrupted preferences file:

  • Newb question: How do you create a new wiki page?

    I've found out how to make Belkin F6 series USB wireless dongles work in Arch. A wiki page would be of much help for people with these devices!
    I've written it out in the forums already:
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 10#p800110
    But a more detailed page that works for similar devices would be of great benefit to some Archers.

    haha sorry. I actually did search the wiki and the forums for "new page" but it didn't occur to me to try "create page" or "creating a page". That's late-night creativity at it's finest.

  • Newbie Question: How to cast object that returns from objectAtIndex?

    If I have an array of custom objects, I want to do something like
    [myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row].myCustomData = ...;
    But the only way I get it to work is if I do
    MyCustomObject *tempObject = [myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row];
    tempObject.myCustomData = ...;
    What is the right way to do this?
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Have you tried with parenthesis ? or at least with the brackets ?
    I am not on my mac, I can't test it...
    ([myArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row]).myCustomData = X;
    By the way, you can wrap your code between {code} to have it nicely displayed on the forum.

  • How do I create a fill-in-the-blank forms

    How do I create a fill-in-the-blank forms in Pages 5

    Pages does not do it like Word, best you can do is tab over a space and leave that space for the user to type into.
    Perhaps putting a small label under to indicate what is required.
    A fill in the blanks form made in Pages however really defeats the point.
    Who out there has Pages, particularly whatever incompatible version you are using?
    Pages has trouble opening Pages files thanks to Apple.
    Use standard file formats either pdf (created in Pages, turned into a form in Acrobat Pro or their website) or Word .docx.

  • How do i create a playlist from an album?

    apparently i have to type more here to get the ball rolling...? 
    I am new to iTunes. I have loaded a few albums from CD into iTunes, and I can play them & even burn new CDs...  But I'd like to do more complex stuff, and the help screens I have read seem to assume a lot of stuff I don't know.
    That's why I started with what I thot was a simple question (How do i create playlist from album; ****! I can't even copy & paste here!) but I dont think I have even submitted my question yet.
    Maybe i shoulda started with a question about HOW to navigate in the "Apple Support Communities"... 
    I apologize for any protocol violations i am committing with this & pray some one will take pity on an old guy who doesn't speak 'apple'... 

    Hello Rhea,
    Thank you for the question.  It sounds like you are trying to create a playlist of a specific album.  I have a couple of suggestions you can try.
    First, your menu options may currently be hidden in iTunes.  I recommend turning them on first if they are not currently visible:
    To keep the iTunes menus active, change the setting by selecting the Menu icon in the upper-left, and then selecting Show Menu Bar. Alternatively, you can press Control-B.
    Find more information about the enabling the menu in this article:
    iTunes: Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5610
    Next, follow these steps to create your playlist.  In step 3, drag the album tracks to the playlist you created:
    Create a playlist
    Choose File > New > Playlist.
    Type a name for the playlist.
    To add items, drag them to the playlist on the right side of the iTunes window.
    When you’re finished adding items, click Done.
    You can find those steps in the following article:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Create a playlist
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12340
    There is an alternate way you can create a playlist as well using the sidebar.  First, you will need to make the sidebar visible:
    Show Sidebar - Choose View > Show Sidebar (this feature will display iTunes features on the left side of the application including Library, Store, Shared, Genius, and Playlists).
    These steps are available in this article:
    iTunes 11: Frequently used features
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5649
    Once you have the sidebar enabled, follow the steps in this video to create a playlist and add an album to it (the title of this video says iTunes 10, but the steps are the same for iTunes 11 once you enable the sidebar):
    iTunes 10: Playlists
    http://support.apple.com/kb/VI71
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?

    How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?
    The CHM output (accreditation.chm) is stored in a parent directory, and the webhelp output (index.htm) is stored in a child directory.

    Open the usual Link dialog and enter the relative path from where the CHM will be installed to where the webhelp will be installed.

  • How do I create an object from a filename?

    I'm traversing directories and storing a list of files in a File array. Then I traverse the array looking at the extension of the file. If it is .java then I would like to instantiate it as a class so that I may pass the new object to another function which will examine its methods. I've tried Class.forName(file.getCanonicalPath()) and it throws a ClassNotFound exception. How can I create an object from a valid filename, please?

    Rick_Avlonitis wrote:
    If it is .java then I would like to </snip>.java files contain source code, they can't be "instantiated". Class.forName() takes a classname as parameter, i.e. "mypackage.MyClass". A class name is not a file name, and it doesn't have an extension. As stated in the other reply, you'll need to have the class on your class path.

  • How do I create a PDF from My scanner?

    The only way Adobe X and XI allow PDF creation is online.  IX allowed multiple options for creating a PDF including from the scanner.  Why has it changed, and how do I create a PDF from the scanner?  If It can't be done on the newer versions, how do I get version 9?
    Thanks,
    David

    I think you may be mixing up Acrobat Professional/Acrobat Standard (which includes creation of PDFs in many ways, including scanning), with Adobe Reader (which does not include PDF creation at all, but can use Adobe's CreatePDF web service).
    I think you used to use Acrobat Professional 9, and so what you need is Acrobat Pro XI.

  • How do I create a pdf from an xps doc?

    How do I create a pdf from an xps doc?

    You could open it in the XPS application and check print preview to see if it comes out as TSN suggests (and likely will). You can go to the printer properties and adjust the page size accordingly.
    You can also use the cropping in Acrobat to size all the pages and then use the Protect>Remove Hidden option to remove the cropped area.
