Warp effect tool illustrator, I want to arc an image/tiff
Can the arc tool in "Effects-warp" be used on a placed tiff? I have designed some labels and now the whole lot needs arcing to fit the bottle shape and the photo is not following all the type, is it possible to do this or can it be done in photoshop?
Well the answer is YES, what I failed to do was to embed the image first. Once embedded it worked perfectly!!!
I thought I would post this in case anyone else made the same mistake, hope it is helpful.
Jackie,
It says "the selection contains objects which cannot be distorted"...:(
And the image does not show an unbendable thing, such as a (railway) rail?
Sorry, it was stronger than I.
It should work either way, and in 10 it works with just the linked image, without adding a rectangle at all.
But it might be one of the quaint behaviours. Here is a current thread about another one:

Maybe someone has told Illy that she can only work with vector artwork and has to leave anything with raster to others.

When you following the suggestion by Michael and repost here,

one of us shall tell you that to change the shape of a raster image, such as a TIFF, as described you may create a (vector) path with the same size and shape placed right on top of the image, and then select both and Effect>Warp>Arc. You can just select the image and see the position and size in the Transform while you create the rectangle to fit. -
How to create this warp effect in illustrator
Hi guys!
I have a vector that I would like to add a line of text to in another language...
At the top of the image attached with have the word "News" which is in the Rockwell font. I would like to create the same warp and change the word news to news in Swedish.
I haven't a problem with the font or creating outlines etc...just getting the exact bend shown here...
I am not sure what tools would have been used?
bookie56bookie,
I have noticed that the Type is also sheared.
The silliest way I can come up with right away, which will allow you to use live Type so you can freely change language, is as follows, using the image as a locked background:
1) Redraw the top and bottom (curved) lines of the heading area and create a one step blend between them and expand the blend so you get a central (curved) line;
2) Write NEWS (or the Swedish equivalent) with the right size, then Object>Transform>Shear with a suitable value (10% or whatever);
3) Create a rectangle with the same length as the central line and a height that exceeds the height of the Type, then position it so the Type is suitably placed (a bit above the middle, as desired left or right);
4) Group path and Type and Object>Transform>Rotate by -90 degrees;
5) Effect>Warp>Arch using a suitable value (6% or whatever);
6) Brushes>New Brush, as an Art Brush, ticking proportional and keeping the downward direction (keep the Group);
7) Apply the Brush to the central line.
For a change of word/language, you can tick the Group and turn it into a new Art Brush after 5) and then repeat just 6) and 7).
You could also prepare the text as in 1) - 5), making the rectangle height correspond to the heading area (the distance between top and bottom lines, then Object>Expand Appearance and rotate by 90 degrees, then join the two lines into a closed path on top in the stacking order, select both and Object>EnvelopeDistort>Make with Top Object. Well, that may be even sillier. -
Paint effect with Illustrator file
I have an Illustrator graphic of a plant that I want to animatate to look like it is growing. The Stroke effect does not give me that desired look as it just animates the outline of the shape and the Paint effect does not seem to work the same in Creative Cloud as it did in prevoius versions of AE.
I have a few questions. Can you not use the paint tool on Illustrator files? If I try to double click the layer to open in the layer window, the computer beeps. I have to right click to open in the layer window. I also cannot not use the paint tool on the AI file once it is loaded in the layer window. As a test, I saved the AI files as a PSD and tried to use the paint tool to create my animation and it appears that no longer use that tool to reveal an image. I can just animate the strokes.
Is there a way to use the Stroke effect the way I want to or is there another way to create my animation.I did figure out after posting this that I was using one .ai file and one .eps file—the .ai was showing up fine in the pdf and the eps was showing up screwy.
odd thing though, when I just re-exported using pdf/x–1a settings, now both images appear muddy! but fine when I turn "overprint preview" on. I just don't want my publisher to have to tell everybody to turn overprint preview on...they shouldn't have to do that for editors etc, non design people.
maybe the new "smallest file size" will be fine though since this is a press preset...we'll see. -
Warp wave tool not working?
is this a known bug? the other warp tools seem to be working but not the wave for some reason.
in cs5 - here is the wave warp - found under Effect->warp->wave
underneath is the simple rectangle I drew and wanted to make it wavy. I can do it by selecting Effect->transform->zigzag and rounding the corners but I wanted to have it more wavy at one end than the other and thought the wave effect might do it.
There is also Effect->Warp->Flag (pictured below)
Which seems to do what it implies, as do all the others under the warp effect, except for wave, fisheye and twist. I can get them to work if I write text inside the rectangle but I don't see why they shouldn't work on the box itself if all the others do.
Failing all that, is there a way to get the Flag effect to wave more than once? -
I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. It came installed on my HP Desktop. I am can not get the warp text tool to work. It has worked in the past. Once I click warp text, the little window does not pop up, and if I try to do anything else after I click warp text, it wont let me. Just sounds the ding, alert, can still slightly navigate the program but can not use any other tools after clicking warp text. I just have to open task manager and close the program. not sure if I'm doing something wrong or maybe I just need to uninstall and re install. Having trouble finding out how to uninstall and reinstall because the program came pre installed on my desktop.
It actually sounds like the warp text window is opening off screen.
Resetting the photoshop elements 10 preferences should fix it.
*Press and hold the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after you start the launch of the photoshop elements 10 editor
*Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop elements setting file
*Press Yes -
Vintage linocut effect in Illustrator
Hello everybody.
This is my first post so go easy on me! I have been using Illustrator for quite a few years now, but definitely do not claim to be an expert.
I'm trying to create a vintage linocut/woodcut effect in illustrator similar to the image I've attached, but I'm struggling! I have tried to create my own custom pattern and art brushes for different edge effects or shading but I ended up creating loads of them and I still can't create the effect accurately enough. Added to this it's taking a long time and for the pieces I would like to create - it's going to take me months!
I wondered if I was going about this the wrong way and whether anybody here knows of any techniques, tutorials or plugins etc. to create this. E.g. I'm not sure if I need to be using a combination of Photoshop filters and then live paint in Illustrator for example.
Does anybody have any ideas on how to create this? Any help is much appreciated!This can probably be done in some ways in illustrator but it will probably involve a lot of works like you already find out.
You can probably save some time trying to do this in Photoshop and with the help of Andromedia Cutline filter ( http://www.andromeda.com/main/cutline.php ). Than bring back to Illustrator to add color with live pain or even also finish it in Photoshop. All depend if you want the end results to be vector of not.
Good luck and share your finding! -

I have a text layer which I want to do some warping to. When I hit the warp text tool all the options are greyed out ??? Any help ? Incidentally, I tried to just transform warp it but no "handles" appear...
In the create warped text dialog did you click on one
of the options in the dropdown menu. (it's always on none
unless you already have some warped text)

what 's wrong? what to do?
pleaseHi!
No, the first frame is not black.. The screenshots where just examples and I tried to adjust the settings, because the first time I tried the timewarp it worked, but the next clip I wanted to warp just got black.. and I tried alot of times to figur out if I adjusted some of the settings.. ( I hope you mean the method and adjust time).
Those comes adjusted in pixel motion and Speed and thats what I have them on now.. Should I adjust it to something else? -
I scanned an image and want to use the image trace tool, but it doesn't pick up all the lines. Is there a way to darken the lines before using the image trace tool? Help!
If the scan is in B&W, then play with the Threshold setting here
If it's in Color, then you will have to open the scan in a Raster editing software (like Photoshop) and play with the Brightness/Contrast settings to make the lines bolder. -
I have installed a trial of Adobe illustrator on my macbook pro. It is the 2014 release of adobe illustrator. I want to trace an image using the custom trace button.
I start a new document. Then I place my scanned pencil/colored pencil drawing, in to the document. I have tried scanning and then placing it as a jpeg, bitmap, and tiff file. I have tried scanning and then placing it, in color and in black and white. The scan mode I use is flatbed. Adobe illustrator allows me to select the default button and one of eleven preset buttons (e.g high fidelity photo), but it does not allow me to click the custom trace button. The custom trace button is grey while all the other buttons are white.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could custom trace?It seems pointless to adjust it afterwards because it is then only a couple a pencil lines rather then a full drawing. And how do I adjust it afterwards? Would I do this using the different buttons under the window button?

I am missing "Warped Effects within my Space Designer. Please help!!!
I downloaded Logic Pro 9 off app store and it appears that I am missing "Warped Effects" within my space designer. My friend is running exact same version of Logic Pro 9 and has this setting. I do not understand why this setting is not present on my Logic. I have downloaded all additional content besides the Jam Packs. Please help me!!! I really need the Warped Effects. I do not understand how my download ended up without them. Thanks.
Have you double checked to make sure ALL the additional content was correctly downlaoded and installed by going back to Download Additional Ciontent and checking each of the items by clicking on each of the little Disclosure Triangles...and making sure they all say Installed?
Alternatively you can simply click on the "Select All Uninstalled" button in the bottom left hand corner of the "Downlaod Addtional Content' window and then click the Install button in the bottom right hand corner.. if it will allow you to. -
How do I make the "demon face warp" effect in Apple Motion?
I have a project where the well-known "demon face warp" effect would be ideal. I understand that it's quite doable with After Effects. But since I don't own After Effects, I thought I might see how to do it with Apple Motion.
My footage is from a Sony PMW EX-1. It's footage of a blonde actress in the woods. I'd like to demonize her pretty face.
(I have FCP 6 and Motion 3.)
Do any of you know of a good tutorial on this subject? Or can any of you suggest how I can explore this endeavor on my own using Apple Motion?
thanks,
shankedDr. PieArson,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I can provide you with a picture of this effect. If you click on this link, you'll see a picture and then a video tutorial on how to accomplish the "demon face" in After Effects.

I've heard it's possible in Motion; I just need to know an efficient method for it.
