Remove 3D New Shape From Layer
I've applied the 3D > New Shape From Layer command to an image. Now I'd like to remove the 3D shape and apply a different shape. Is there a way to remove the first 3D shape? I've searched, but haven't found a way to do it.
Hi,
From post #8 onward should be a new topic.
To answer most basically, in order to not have part of a 3D mesh display you need to use opacity maps. This is supported in CS4. There also is a way to hide geometry (or make it invisible) but that won't accomplish what is being asked. It hides whole mesh groups, not just parts of mesh groups.
If you just want to display the text mapped on a sphere, then you need to setup a matching opacity map. The steps to get this setup is pretty quick, if not discoverable (yes the UI has room for improvement). It can also be made so that the text is live and a single file controls both opacity mapping and text color. Finally, once created, a material can be saved out that can be used in the future to cut out some steps.
Below are steps, but I haven't confirmed most gotchas. There is one known problem that shows up in the Layers panel (No indication that an opacity map is applied). Another thing is to make sure and save a copy of the final file so you don't overwrite the canned sphere.dae file.
1) create new 1024 x 512 RGB with transparent background
2) with Type tool, create a text string to fit middle third of document space
3) save this file, and close
4) go to File> Open and browse to Ps application folder> Presets> Meshes> Sphere.dae
5) expand the 3D panel, select the Sphere_Material, then click the Diffuse map icon and select 'Load Texture...'
6) select the text file created above to replace the current map file
7) now click the Opacity map icon and select 'Load Texture...'
8) again select the text file created above (ok the warning dialog)
You should now just see text wrapping spherically . At this point you can save out a material preset to apply to any 3D shape without having to build the materail from scratch each time. And make sure to Save As..., closing the original Sphere.dae file without saving to keep that preset clean.
To change the text again, just open the Diffuse map file in the 3D layer and edit the text layer. Saving the file will update on the model and affect the Opacity map as well (ie. change text string or size).
Regards,
steve

PS CS4, Vista64: new shape from layer -- no effect
Hello,
I have CS4, Vista64, and want to try this effect: http://tv.adobe.com/#vi+f1584v1025
-> converting a layer into a shape
But I get no reaction after applying this effect.
Is there a solution to this (my?) problem?
CarlosHello Zeno,
thanks for helping me, but...

I have resetted all preferences by starting PS CS4 (Vista64) with holding Shift,Ctrl,Alt -- no change in the behaviour of PS. And there is no difference with activated or deactivated OpenGL-Settings (nVidia).
Another suggestions?

If I wrap a layer of rasterized text around a 3D sphere from the Shape from Layer command, how can I then delete the sphere, but keep the curved text?
You can edit the Transparency (if thats what You mean) of the Object in the 3D-Panel under 3D (Materials).
Hit the button right beside the Opacity Value and select New Texture; this You can then open from the Layers Panel and insert Your text there as white on black which works much like a Layer Mask.
If You only want the flattened Layer You can go to the menu 3D and select Rasterize. -
How do I make a new shape from 2 existing shapes in Ps CS6?
Once I have drawn the shapes the 'intersecting shape area' etc option is greyed out, I can draw a new shape to do thins but how do I use 2 existing shapes. I know this should be easy I just can't work out how to do it.
Wow dude thanks for the help that's very cool of you to bother to do that, but no sorry that's not what I mean either, That is useful but I actually can't select shapes like you do in the video I get a "could not select blar blar blar because its not inside the vector mask of a visible layer" warning, and again sorry for my late replies I'm very busy, new baby, work, etc etc and I really do appreciate your help. I want to make a new shape form the overlapping parts of 2 existing shapes. So I draw a shape (shape 1), make a new layer and draw another shape (shape 2), and then later decide the overlapping parts need to be a new shape (shape 3). So I could duplicate shape 1 and then using the pen tool select 'Intersecting shape area' and try and draw the same shape 2 again but that seems to be a stupid way to do it, I'd like to know the process to make this new shape 3 from the existing shapes 1 & 2, there must be an intelligent way.

3D: Deleting a mesh, applying multiple materials, "New volume from Layers"
I am learning the 3D capabilities of Photoshop CS5 Extended and have some questions that do not appear to be covered in the help reference material:
Can I remove a mesh from a 3D Layer / scene?
For instance, after having merged two 3D layers together.
Can I apply multiple materials to a single mesh?
I can see that more complex meshes have multiple materials applied to them. Does Photoshop have the capability to add/remove more than one materials to meshes?
What is "New volume from Layer" intended to do?
I couldn't find this specific menu item in the help reference material anywhere.
Thanks,
B.
PS: I sat waiting on hold for Adobe tech support for 2 hours and 17 minutes with no signs of life before giving up. When I explored callback options online, the website said that no options are available for Photoshop. This level/absence of support is mind-bogglingly awful for an enterprise like Adobe. I know me grousing about it here won't change anything, but I need to get my frustration out of my system and writing it down helps.Hi B.,
Can I remove a mesh from a 3D Layer / scene?
For instance, after having merged two 3D layers together.
You can only hide meshes in the scene, not remove or delete them. You have to delete the whole 3D layer to remove meshes from a document.
Can I apply multiple materials to a single mesh?
I can see that more complex meshes have multiple materials applied to them. Does Photoshop have the capability to add/remove more than one materials to meshes.
With Photoshop you can't replace an existing single material with multiple materials. There's very limited ability to edit UV mapping and you'll want to do that in a full 3D modeling application. Repoussé meshes are created with 5 materials to a single mesh object so technically, yes to your question; But that's not really what I think you're asking.
What is "New volume from Layer" intended to do?
I couldn't find this specific menu item in the help reference material anywhere.
This has applications in scientific and medical imaging, but doesn't need to only be used there. An example would be to use a DICOM format, multi-sliced imaging scan and have the layers of the scan modeled into a volume. It is really just taking successive layers and placing them at equal distance in space. The Render Settings dialog offers a few options to vary the displayed volume after it's generated.
I'll see if I can get that model tomorrow and try to find out why the menu items are not working. You're talking about the group of 4 that includes 'Hide Nearest Surface', right?

How do I use "Trim Paths" after "Create Shapes from Vector Layer" on a strokes only layer?
Hello,
Adobe After Effects CC
2014.0.2
Version 13.0.2.3
I have imported an illustrator file that was created in Illustrator CC 18.0.0. The file contains the outline of a logo. It is the logo with the fill set to none and the stroke set to 1px.
I drag the logo_strokes.ai file onto the composition, right click, and click Create Shapes from Vector Layer.
A new layer is created and in the Contents "drop down", a Fill 1 layer is created.
When I select the Contents "drop down" and click Add / Trim Paths, a Trim Paths 1 layer is created.
When I animate Trim Paths 1, it appears to animate the Fill layer, not the stroke.
How do I get it to animate just the stroke, and not show a fill at all?
Thank you.Thanks,
I am reading and watching tutorials. Still stuck on that one point.
Here are the images of the After Effects layers. The illustrator layer is the top layer. -
How to remove 'Outlines' default text when creating shapes from vector layers?
Hello everyone!
You know the text it adds to the name layer when you create shapes from a vector layer that says Outlines? Well, anyone know if it's possible to change it or remove it?
It sucks to have to remove it manually, especially when it's a lot of layers and you've taken the time to do the prepping in illustrator.
Thankss,
Oliverif I have an illustrator layer that is named icon and I convert it to outlines I get a layer that is named icon Outlines. Are you trying to remove the word Outlines or are you getting just a layer that says Outlines? Personally I would not remove the word Outlines from shape layer because this would differentiate it from the original and let me know at a glance what's going on with the layer and the project. This would be valuable information if I were to return to the project a year later for modifications.

Problem with "Create New Extrusion from Selected Layer" CC 2014
Hello, I'm experienced with Photoshop but am new to 3D text in Photoshop. I type in some text and convert to a shape. When I choose Create New Extrusion from Selected Layer I get dialog box I don't see in any tutorials. It says "You are about to create a 3D layer. Would you like to switch to the 3D workspace? Yes/No, Don't show again." Which should I use for 3D text?
If I choose Yes, all the panels go away and the content in the tool options bar (ribbon?) just under the menu bar go away. I have to restart Photoshop to get the tool options back. What could I be doing wrong?
Thanks - DaveI just chose "No" and didn't look back. I like my workspace just as it is, and don't prefer Photoshop to change it for me under this particular case.
You can make the 3D panel visible yourself via Window - 3D. I find it's a good alternate for the Actions panel, as I don't have any actions at the moment that work in the 3D world.
The panels you'll want to see easily if you work on 3D are the 3D panel and the Properties panel, among a few others.
Regarding getting your workspace back the way you like it... Note the little selector near the upper-right corner of the Photoshop main window. That can be used to select a workspace. I suggest you experiment and get familiar with the concept of workspaces. You can define your own and save it with a name, and that truly can be helpful.

In PS i can Magic wand selection shape from one layer, drop to sub layer and copy that selected shape from that sub layer. How do I do this in illistrator, and moreover, from multiple layer at the same time.
For instance, in PS = Import an image of gold - select a text phrse with wand - drop to gold - copy paste = gold text.
How is this done in illustrator?Illustrator C6
Basicly I want to do what takes me 10 minutes to do in PS in Illistrator. LOL! I realize I must learn Illistrator; especially for logo design.
I want to select my objects in Illistrator and drop to another layer and copy that layer but with only the selection to create another new layer with that which I
originally selected and then copied from another layer.
1. Select objects
2. copy that selection from another image. "gold effect taken from an image"
3 paste that which was selected = that which was selected, but in gold. -
New shape layer auto applies the same layer effects as previous ones
Everytime I draw a new SHAPE layer it auto applies the same layer effects I applied to the first shape I drew in a document. I can’t find anything online about turning this annoying setting off. So for example, if I draw a circle and apply a gradient overlay and a drop shadow then every circle I draw from here on out adds the same effects automatically.
To draw a new shape layer without the layer style applied to the
previous shape layer:

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for along time now. When I first used the program I had a different printer than I have now. Although I changed printers I never removed the software from my old one. Now this was never a problem until today. When I choose a printer I still had option to use the old one but always chose my new HP Envy 5530 and Adobe never had a problem printing from that new printer. However today I decided to remove my old printer from my computer and now my Adobe cannot find my new printer. How can I make it find the HP printer?
