Reclaiming a stroke after making it part of a live paint object

The "s" in the screenshot below was a path filled with black.  I had the lineart done by and artist and then I go in and fill the color, so I'm 99.9% this description is correct.  I filled it using livepaint.  It's now a livepaint object...  I need to go in and correct my blacks (to rich black, this is a CMYK doc -- I have another thread about that, LOL).  Now, when I select the path that contains the black, if I try to change it's fill to the proper black, it fills the entire object with that color.  I just need to change the area within the yellow path you see below and NOT the light blue area...  It seems that once it converted to livepaint, I lost the ability to change the fill within the yellow path (which is just the outline of a stroke of black, for lack of a better description.  It looks like a stroke, but it's a fill or WAS a fill before it became a livepaint object.  Anyone know how I can change just the black part?  Thanks.

Fill it with the live paint bucket selecting the rich black swatch first.
If it is pat of a live paint group that is what the paint bucket is for otherwise with the selection tool, the black arrow double click on it to enter isolation mode and now fill it or select as you have and from the layers panel drop down select isolation mode and now fill it.
Or select it and only it and go to Edit>Edit Colors>Recolor Art and select the new color area and add a new color and select the rich black swatch.

  • Place an Effect on part of a live group

    Hey all! I'm having an issue I was hoping to find help with.
    I have two parallel lines that I have an effect applied to (zig zag). These lines intersect with two straight parallel lines. I need to paint the box they create. I selected all my lines and created a live group and when I go to paint I get a warning message. All complex visual effects (zig zag) will be removed in order to use live paint. So I figure, 'ok, I'll apply the affect afterwards.'t I only need the zig zag on 2 of the 4 lines, but no matter what I try, once they are a part of that live paint group the effect will apply itself to all four lines. Is there some way that I'm missing? The only thing I can think of at this point it to use the pen tool and to create a line with 100+ tight curves, but that will be extremely time consuming and won't come out as clean and nice looking as the zig zag effect.
    Thanks for any help you guys can give!

    Select the zig zag lines. Choose Object > Expand Appearance... then proceed with Live Paint and what you were trying.
    You have to make the effect permanent in order to keep the appearance and use Live Paint.

  • Illustrator CS6 - Live paint makes paint strokes thinner

    Im fairly new with illustrator, when i try and use live paint by selecting the brush strokes then going object > live paint > make, it makes my strokes really thin and it is really annoying, is there any way of avoiding this?

    This issue can be probably solved by expand the object before convert it into a live paint object.
    From the illustrator guide:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/illustrator/cs/using/WS714a382cdf7d304e7e07d0100196cbc5f-6507a .html
    if you try to convert an object that uses brushes or effects, the complex visual appearance is lost in the conversion to Live Paint. However, you can retain much of the appearance by first converting the objects to regular paths and then converting the resulting paths to Live Paint.

    Try to position your iphone that the screen is facing away from your skin.
    Make sure that the back part of your phone will be the one that will contact your skin inside your pocket

  • Why am I unable to delete the default track (which seems to act as the master, right?) after making a rough mix?  Is it possible to delete the default track after having rendered a mix?

    Why am I unable to delete the default track (which seems to act as the master, right?) after making a rough mix?  Is it possible to delete the default track after having rendered a mix?  I did a rough mix and now cannot change the song as the tracks that were a part of the rough mix seem to remain in the song even though I mute the tracks for a new mix.  For instance, I played and recorded a different bass line.  Muted the original, but when trying to create the new mix I can hear the original bass line even though I have muted that track.  It seems to remain in the previous master (default) track.  Please send help.  Thank you.

    Before answering your question, you have to make sure you understand the difference between the different track types in GarageBand.
    Tracks, you record your music on
    There are three types of those Tracks.
    MIDI Tracks (aka Software Instrument Tracks)
    Audio Tracks (aka Real Instrument Tracks)
    Drummer Track (only one per Project)
    Global Tracks
    These are the Tracks that can be shown/hidden at the top of the Tracks Area for specific purposes.
    Arrangement Track
    Movie Track
    Transposition Track
    Tempo Track
    Master Track
    This Track can also be shown/hidden in the Tracks Area. Please note, you cannot delete that Track, only hide it, similar to the Global Tracks
    Regarding the Tracks you record your music on,  you can delete any of those. It doesn't matter if you created them or there are part of a Template (maybe that  is what you refer to as the default track). Once you delete the last Track, the "New Track Window" will pop up to add a new track.
    I will explain all that in much more detail in my manual "GarageBand X - How it Works".
    Hope that helps

  • Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon"? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of

    Did you know that Verizonwireless is saving your checking account information when you pay your bill by check and then making it part of your "MyVerizon"  without you adding it? This means of course if they get hacked that information could be compromised. What do you think of this?

    Credit card and debit card and checking and savings information is encrypted so it is possible to be hacked, but the odds are greater to get hit by the Love Boat then to have a wide scale hack.
    Oh yes they do happen, Bank of America, Chase, Citibank, Target and quite a few others. But in all the years I have paid my invoice with saved card information I never been hacked.
    You use good passwords and the risk is minimal.
    Good Luck

  • IMovie HD 6.0.3: After making 10 movies where I clipped portions from a larger clip (and exported the smaller clips), suddenly iMovie clips are much shorter after I export them.

    Hi there,
    I am using iMovie HD 6.0.3 on an older MacBookPro (OS X, 10.4.11).
    I took an AVI video and imported that into iMovie HD.
    I then created smaller clips out of that - like editing a 20 minute video into small, 30 second clips.
    I made about 10 of these smaller clips, exported them using "expert settings," and burned the results to DVD. These all worked fine.
    Suddenly, the final product that I export is much shorter than the clip I created. For example, I'll create a 30 second smaller clip from the original. When I review this 30 second clip, it is what I wanted.
    When I export this 30 second clip, it makes a QuickTime movie that is only 23 seconds. (The first 10 I made did not do this).
    I tried extending my clip by 7 seconds, hoping to end up with a 30 second clip after exporting. The result was even shorter - like 15 seconds.
    I have checked disk space - it has at least 500 GB free space. I have tried exporting the clip to both my laptop and to an external hard drive. The results are the same.
    I just tried using the "crop" feature to see if my end product was better - but it was the same.
    Does anyone know what is going on? Why did this start after making 10 successful exports? What can I do to get it working right again, as I have 3 more clips to make and am running up against a deadline.
    Thanks so much!
    Heidi

    Since I can't edit this post... (Why?) I'd add: fast forwarding and fast reverse (shift key and arrow left or right) the HA files is also not smooth. They play alright. I'm surprised iMovie can't handle them either. I didn't have a problem with the earlier camcorder's HA files... (All were converted MTS files using Movie Converter.)

  • How can I change a brush stroke to a pencil stroke after I've drawn it?

    How can I change a brush stroke to a pencil stroke after I've drawn it? Is this possible?

    h,
    As I (mis)understand it, (in effect) just by clicking the Reduce to Basic Appearance button in the Appearance palette (and setting the desired Stroke Weight, if different from 1pt).
    The Pencil Tool creates a uniform width path like the Pen Tool, producing Anchor Points like the Artbrush Tool. So when you reduce to basic appearance you will get a path corresponding/identical to the one you would create with the Pencil Tool.

  • I have one iPhone 8GB. after making upgrade of iTunes and software of iPhone, it's impossible to use the iPhone. There's no service! doesn't acept the code PIN! it only make emergency calls and the image in the phone is to conect to iTunes.What can i do?

    I have one iPhone 8GB. After making un upgrade of iTunes and software of iPhone, it's impossible to use it. There's no service! doesn't acept PIN code! it only makes emergency calls and the image in the iPhone is the sign to connect to iTunes. What can i do to solve it?

    Where are you and where did you get the phone.  This sounds like a classic symptom of someone who bought an iPhone that originated in the U.S. which was then hacked so it would run on a carrier network other than AT&T... Then, when updating the phone, it becare re-locked to AT&T.
    If that's what happened, you now own a paperweight. AT&T will NOT unlock them for any reason.
    If this isn't the case, please clarify where you are, what carrier you have and where you got the phone so we can begin troubleshooting.

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I have done a test and I can’t reproduce your issue.
    I have used SharePoint Designer 2013 to open a SharePoint Online site and there are no issues.
    I’d like to clarify whether you encounter any issues when accessing SharePoint Online sites. If there are no issues during the accessing procedure, SharePoint Online service should be working fine at your side. The issue may be caused by specific SharePoint
    Designer client or network. I suggest you refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the issue.
    1. Use SharePoint Designer to open another site and check whether it is successful.
    2. When you are prompted to enter Office 365 account and password, try other users’ accounts and select the remembering the credential.
    3. Perform the connection procedure under another environment and verify whether the issue is resolved.
    If the issue persists, can you provide related screenshots for further troubleshooting?
    Best Regards,

  • Input credit on Service tax after making payment to vendors

    Dear Friends,
    Vendor invoice has been entered with Input service tax and payment has been made to the vendor. After making the payment, it is only clearing the vendor balance and not the input service tax G/L accounts entered on the invoice.
    We tried to implement deferred tax functionality (RFUMSV50 program), but here most of the input tax codes are based on the combination of Service tax with VAT. Hence we couldnt proceed further as deferred tax functionality is not applicable for VAT portion and applicable only for Service Tax here as it is a service based industry. In short, the requirement is Input credit can be taken for Service Tax only after making payment to the vendor.
    Could you please let me know is there any mechanism where we can identify whether vendor invoice has been paid or not from the Input Service Tax GL accounts (either in FBL3N or FAGLL03 tcode). Based on that if the document is cleared, then my client will only take all the cleared documents' input service tax amounts and will set off with the output service tax.
    Regards,
    Dwarak.
