Paintbrush keeps making 3d shapes

I used the 3d extrude and bevel option to make a 2d shade into a 3d one, but now my paintbrush and blob brush only make 3d shapes. It's kind of cool, but it's not what I'm wanting to do right now. How do I change it back WITHOUT resetting my preferences?

Go to the appearance panel and from the fly out menu select New Art has Basic Appearance.
If you want to get rid of the 3D appearance on the art you made with the brushes select the art and go to the Appearance Panel and select the effect and hit the trash can t the right bottom of the panel.
I hope this helps.

  • How can I disable making live shape rectangle in the first place but normal one instead in Illustrator CC?

    How can I disable making live shape rectangle in the first place but normal one instead in Illustrator CC? When I create rectangle I can't transform it by dragging and it's only the problem with rectangle, not with circle, star etc. I try show/hide edges/bounding box reset preferences and reinstall whole illustrator CC and it's the same. I can only make this right by expand this rectangle, which is shape as is turn out to rectangle by clicking object>shape>expand rectangle. But this is so frustrating. Help!:) oh, and I use OSX. My friend has the same specs and it's works. I mean she can use live shape corner transformations and changing size by draging:(

    I’ve created my own plugin (available for free for personal and commercial use) which imitates behavior of the ‘old’ Rectangle Tool. It doesn’t replace the Live Rectangle – it works completely independent!
    My Plain Rectangle Tool correctly snaps to grids/objects/points and correctly aligns to grid/points on resize. Of course it supports the SHIFT and ALT/OPTION keys, Snap to Grid and Smart Guides options. In other words it works almost 100% the same as the Rectangle Tool we know from CC (17.1), CS6 and earlier.
    The installation package (zxp) adds ‘Plain Rectangle Tool’ icon into the Ai panel (of curse you can assign your custom keyboard shortcut to it as well)
    Note: The Plain Rectangle can be easily converted into the Live one using Object > Shape > Convert to Rectangle
    Grab your copy at http://63mutants.com/subc/products/PlainRectangleTool_m01/PlainRectangleTool_m01.php Feel free to share with your friends. It’s completely free.
    I’ve also created a separate discussion https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1587587 for the Plain Rectangle Tool. If you have any comments or request please post it there. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

  • My mac pro keeps making a chirping cricket-like sound

    My Mac Pro keeps making a chirping cricket-like sound, more and more frequently. Has anyone else had this problem? Is this telling me one of my HD is going bad?

    ...I had them so close together that it sounded like the MacPro. Once I pulled them apart however, it was clear where the sound was coming from. Thank you all for the help!
    Been there, done that. And the instructions, once I found them, seemed to list every possible communication except the chirps; I had to call tech support, which was actually a pleasant experience after dealing with Verizon.
    The frequency of chirping as well as how long each chirp sequence lasts seems to be related to the line voltage. It's as if the UPS begins to worry as the line voltage goes down that it might have to actually do something with its battery.

  • My MacBook Pro keeps making copies of a document that I am trying to save. I don't want to duplicate the file. I only want to save it on both my hard drive and my external hard drive. I do not want to change its name for every save, which the computer see

    My MacBook Pro keeps making copies of a document that I am trying to save. I don't want to duplicate the file. I only want to save it on both my hard drive and my external hard drive. I do not want to change its name for every save, which the computer seems insistent on doing. Help!!

    I did not create the file to be read-only. I created to be able to continue to add to it as I work on it.

    Sounds like a permissions problem ie read only.
    If running repair permissions from your DiskUtility.app does not sort it,

  • My macbook wont boot up, black screen and the cd drive keeps making a constant sound. What to do?

    My macbook wont boot up. When I turn it on, the screen turns black right away and the cd/dvd drive keeps making a constant "ejecting" sound.
    The strange thing though is that once in a while starts up propperly, but suddely goes black again (after a min. or two), and the ejecting sound comes back. What to do, and yh, I've never done a back up so would it be possible to take out the HD and regain whats in there?
    Any help would be appriciated!

    Hello. Try resetting the PRAM and SMC first.

    You can create an App store account without a credit card, however that won't help you with updating your previous purchases. Apps are DRM protected, and tied to the account that was used to originally purchase them. There is no way to overcome this DRM protection or transfer them to another account(Itunes support can if you contact them). If you want to create an App store account without a credit card, follow the directions here, but bear in mind the DRM protection mentioned. If you use this account to download free apps, you will have to use this same account for all future updates:

  • What keeps making the cyclical noise while in sleep.  Sounds like iMac is loading a graphic or different screen.

    What keeps making the cyclical noise while in sleep?  Sounds like iMac is loading a graphic or different screen.  Does it periodically while in sleep mode.  How do I correct this?  Just started doing it in the last few months.

    I finally figured out how to fix this.  First I reviewed "Mac OS X: Why your Mac might not sleep of stay in sleep mode."  I noted the bullet:  "Do you have any other external USB or Firewire devices connected?"  I have an CP685AVR for a UPS for my Mac.  I replaced the battery a few months ago.  I also hooked up Apple's 'Energy Saver' power management software to the CP685AVR using the USB connection.  I disconnected it, and that solved the problem.  I still have the UPS and battery back-up; I just can't "monitor" the battery.  What's to monitor?  It always said the battery was 100% charged even right up to the time the previous battery failed.  Thanks for listening, uh... reading.

    hi koushikt,
    Welcome to the Forums.
    The Desktop Window Manager is a part of Windows 8 that manages the aero effects (i.e. Aero Peek, Window Coloration, etc.). From the screenshots that you posted, it looks like a problem with DWM itself as discussed in this microsoft article.
    Can you try to:
    1. Run Windows Updates to get the latest patch and bug fixes for your OS.
    2. Update your display driver (if you have Intel HD 4000 Graphics, get it here)
    3. Disable visual effects and reboot.
    Let me know your findings,
    neoeknchi

  • I have a 4s that I want to add to my account it won't let me say I have my own phone it keeps making me try to buy one

    I have a 4s I want to add and they keep making me try to buy a phone and not add my own phone--how do I get around this

    I just confirmed when I go to the Verizon website, sign in with my credentials and click on My Verizon.  Then I go to the left hand side to manage my device and select activate or switch device (not add a line).  It then takes me to the page where I can enter the phone's information to activate. 

  • When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in

    When the system goes into sleep mode it keeps making a beeping noise. The system is shut down by holding the button in
    and will then boot up again without any errors.
    I Have replace RAMS, Motherboard and Power Supply. I have check the Bio's  and Power setting on the unit. there is no place to cause this issue.
    Please help
    PC Power Tech

    Syamak,
    You didn’t specify where the beeping noise is coming from. 
    If it’s coming through your speakers, you could try to update your audio drivers since it’s possible they’re incorrectly sending a signal to the speakers as the audio chipset enters standby. 
    If the noise is coming from the motherboard, you’ll need to take a closer look at your system’s configuration or contact the manufacturer.
    I hope this helps.

  • Energy Management software keeps making shortcuts in the Start Menu

    I just recently reformatted my laptop and installed Windows 7 Ultimate. I got the drivers from my laptop model's download page in the Lenovo support website, and everything was working fine - except for when the Lenovo Energy Management software would keep making shortcuts in the Start Menu every time I reboot the system.
    I had my Start Menu organized, created folders to categorize my apps, so it's really annoying when a folder I already deleted pops up every time I start my laptop. Why does it happen? Is there a fix for it?

    Hi Pommy,
    Welcome to Lenovo Community!
    I’m sorry to hear that a shortcut is automatically getting created, I would suggest you to re-install the LEM (Lenovo Energy Management) in the computer and while installing the driver right click on the downloaded file and select “Run as administrator” option to get it installed without any error.
    Do post us back if the issue persists.
    Best Regards
    Shiva Kumar

  • Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file?

    Why does Mac OX 10.6.8 keep making copies of a file anytime I download, copy, or move a file? It will copy, dowload or move the file, then begin making copies until I reboot. This makes it impossible to deal wit hfiles unless I want to spend a lot of time rebooting after every time, then deleting all the redundant copies.

    If I understand what you are saying this is very strange.  Sure you tried Reparing Permissions and all that.  Also sure you're aware that when moving a file from the hard disk to an external - the default is to make a copy rather than a move.  If the movement is with the same disk (e.g. hard disk - hard disk) the Default is a Move rather than Copy.
    Anyway try this: Move a file between location where you would normally have this problem while holding the Command Key (which triggers a Move rather than a Copy).  I would also try quickly setting up a New User Account and see if the problem is present within this New Account.  This may provide a clue as to what is happening.
    Also, what browser are you using when the download problem happens?

  • Cs2 keeps making a folder i don't want on my Server

    hi guys. we just got a server and now everytime we open photoshop up it creates a folder called our username on the root of the server and we have to keep deleting it. it's frustrating and also confusing as we have another folder deeper down the subdirectories on the server with this name so would rather photoshop didn't keep making this folder.
    how can i stop this? please someone help with this weird problem.
    thanks.

    Umm, what server? How do you connect? How do you handle user profiles? PS (or any other app for that matter) would only create folders, if it cannot find the user home directory or a valid temp directory, so it's more or less a configuration issue with the server, its drive mapping and user permissions, I'd say.
