Wire Frame

Hello,
How I can make a 3-d wire frame effect like this one website on the banner
http://www.curve2.com/index.php?
Thanks

Using the Blend tool to blend between two paths would be the obvious answer, but each of the instances in the blend will be equally spaced, when what you want is for the instances to get closer together at either side of the blend (logarithmic blends). You can simulate this fairly successfully by replacing the blend's spine with a curved path, and then adjusting that path's handles.

Is there a "wire frame" option, like in FCP (Zoom to canvass?)

I have video that is sideways (held camera that way to get portrait style footage).
I see how it is easy to crop and rotate those clips in iMovie 09, but that leaves me with big black borders on the sides.
I understand why this is happening. The aspect ratio, etc.
But in Final Cut there is an option to zoom in to the canvass. In FCP: this will create a white wire frame X on top of the canvas which can be dragged beyond the boundaries of the canvass.
I know it will degrade somewhat and I will lose some of the image (like using zoom or widescreen on a tv) but that is better than having part of a movie suddenly look narrow and black bordered.
I tried starting with projects in 4:3 and in 16:9. But I can't drag that green scale box beyond the edge.
Any way to do this? Thanks.

Hello Appleman.
You've given me very helpful answers in other, related posts. One in particular you clarified by writing: +For iMovie to see an Event it need to be in the Movies/iMovie Projects folder on the boot drive, OR in the iMovie Events folder at the top level of an external drive.+
So I'm going to take advantage of your knowledge and helpful nature by asking another related question I have not received an answer to.
Is there any way to use a Disc Image (a .dmg) that I created on an external drive, to store an Event and Project. I can do so storing the Event on that external drive itself now that you clarified for me where it needs to be. But the disc image, after mounting, has a small yellow triangle over it. So I cannot get an Events folder on it (though I tried manually outside of iMovie, just to see).
What do you think, are disc images completely off limits?

When I use the selection tool to move vector points and bend edges, I only see the change in wire frame.

When I use the selection tool to move vector points and bend edges, I only see the change in wire frame. Once I commit by letting go of the mouse button, the object does change. It just previews with a wire frame. I would like to see the preview change on the solid object. Is there a setting somewhere?
I sure hope I am explaining this for people to understand .
Thanks
Ed

Hi Ed,
What do you mean by wire frame??And are you using selection or sub-selection tool since you have mentioned about vector point I doubt if it is sub-selection tool.Could you please attach a video demonstrating the issue where we see the mismatch in the preview and the output, so that we can understand the problem better and try to resolve it.
Thanks,

Trying to create a wire frame object in 3D

Hi Folks, I am trying to create two objects: something called a gravity well and a wire framed globe in Photoshop 3D CS6. The examples are here: http://www.carreonphotography.com/3D/ #'s 1/5 and 5/5. I tried using a gradient map to create a depth map but the form is not editable if I understand PS 3D correctly. Only the scale, light, texture and perspective.
The surace of the gravity well needs to be a white wire grid pattern over black with. The globe is basically the same. Can this be accomplished on Photoshop CS6 3D or do I have to farm this out to a 3D guy.
I have included samples of my objectives: #1 and 5 plus screen shots of what I ended up with, the form of which was uneditable based on what I understand. I also don't know how I would create the wire frame once I have the form.
I deally I would use the final images as png's on a 2D suface which I would later wrap onto a 3D surface.
Any thoughs please!
Thanks folks in advance:

How do I eliminate the artifacts along the edges of the frontal vertices of the well?
I think I know what you're referring to, but to make sure we're on the same page, repost the image with red ellipses/boxes surrounding the artifacts which trouble you.
As recommended by someone on the forums I started with a 32 bit grid map but knocked it down to 16 bits to speed up the 3d engine. Was my thinking correct? Can I use a gray scale image instead so PS CS6 doesn't get bogged down?
I used an 8-bit grayscale image for the grid and I rendered to 16-bit output (i.e. my main document's mode was 16-bit RGB). Rendering to floating point 32-bit output images can have advantages when using illuminants with realistic intensities but it usually requires subsequent tone mapping. I don't think your illustrative image will benefit from that, so I recommend you render to 16-bit.
There is absolutely no reason to use a 32-bit per channel image for that grid opacity texture. The grid has only black and white and is entirely horizontal and vertical lines, so you should be able to get away with a 1-bit per pixel texture, but use an 8-bit grayscale texture because I know that works in Photoshop
The output of the final document is 5000 X 5000 pixels but the gravity well is but small element in the background so I have made it 3000 by 3000. If the 3D engjine is using vector math to draw the lines, does size even matter?
The polygons making up the surfaces that are rendered will be calculated with vector maths but the size of the opacity texture should be large enough to prevent it becoming fuzzy due to upscaling to cover the surface area when rendering an image of a given size. Remember that a texture can be tiled (up to ten times in each direction) to repeat over a surface (using the UV Mapping Properties), so your grid doesn't need to define every "square" of the well.
Can't figure out how to move a point light from the bottom so it matches the second example. I like the way this artist handles transparency in his grid. Can you tell me now to move the light. The interface is different than in CS5 tutorials.
Click on a point light with the Move Tool to activate its manipulator then drag on the heads of the red, green and blue arrows. You might want to switch view to each of the top, right and front views to aid alignment. You can store the current 3D view before changing then return to it. There's a secondary view window that can be enabled, which would aid with alignment, but it doesn't show lights for some reason.
Is it possible to select all the shape layers containing horizontal lines and change their width simultaneously? I am doing so one layer at a time.
Do you mean to scale the width of the lines without scaling their offset?

Interactive wire frames

Hi. I am working with CS6 and putting together some interactive wire frames. Is it possible to create a back button? I see that you can make all kinds of other buttons, including a 'previous' button, but that just seems to take you to the preceding page - not necessarily the page you navigated from. Can any one help. Thanks.

Have never found a way to do that in InDesign, so I add that in Acrobat.

Why do my transistions go beyond the wire frame

So I have two photos and in between I put a dip to color transition
Instead of the dip color staying within the wire frame, which is at 100% as far as scale, the transition dip color extends beyond the actual frame size
Anyone help me with this
Thank you for your time
David

Okay David, I see now
I see what you are saying
Thank you. I went back and resized the jpeg's correctly within the sequence settings
Thank you

Any idea of easy to use wire frame that work with jDeveloper or APEX?

Hello there,
Anyone has an idea of any easy to use wire frame that works well with Jdeveloper or Oracle Application Express? I was asked to check out some of the wire frame in Google and I am looking for suggestions.
Any suggestion is welcome...

Hi,
wire frames are technology agnostic and are to sketch user interfaces and navigation flows. So there is no dependency to JDeveloper or APEX. For ADF Faces - as Timo mentions - we do provide Microsoft Visio stencil to mockup user interfaces. However, these go beyond wireframes because wireframes don't actually focus on look and feel but layout only

Hide Muse wire frame from search engines while in dev

Hi,
I am using muse to develop a wire frame for a client.
Could you advise on how I hide the site from search engines during this process.
Many Thanks
Cas

Hi Cas,
If you have published the site to Business Catalyst and the site is still in trial mode, you have nothing to worry about. A robots.txt file is automatically added to the trial sites in BC. So search engines can't index the BC trial sites.

Aish

Adding aspect ratio wire frame

I'm trying to add a frame on top of the video I'm compressing in Compressor to show an aspect ratio (1:78, 1:85, 2:35). I know how to add a matte, but this blocks a portion of the image. I instead want to still show the full image, simply with a frame or guideline on top. I'm creating dailies using Compressor, and like that I can burn in time code, but really want the aspect ratio frame as well. So for example, the production may be shooting 16x9, but the final cut will be 1:85. I want the dailies to still be in 16x9, showing the entire image that was shot, but with the added 1:85 frame on top. Any help would be most appreciated.

Yeah, it looks like in Compressor you can only crop, not overlay.
You could make a little rectangle with very thin sides in FCP by combining two 4-point mattes.
Save that frame to disk and then import it into Compressor as a watermark.

I am trying to use pencil for my wire frames yet it is not compatible with FFox 16.0.1. What can I do??

Pencil Project is not working as needed. Maybe the pencil project has not caught up to the updates of the FF browser.

Is this an extension? Have you tried opening the .xpi file with an archive handler like Betterzip or Zipeg, extracting the install.rdf file, and increasing the max version number for the target application? After you edit that, save the file, then insert it back into the archive and save it, then reinstall it.

Selecting Objects [Wire Frames]

Hello. When I select and object on the timeline, I understand that you have to double click it on your canvas to actually enable the wireframes and move it around. Is there anyway that when I click something on the timeline it automaticly selects it so i dont have to double click it? I'm trying to move a color matte thats under text, and everytime i double click to try and select the matte its selecting the text over it and its driving me crazy. So my question is again, is there anyway to have something wireframed when i select it on the timeline instead of having to double click it on the canvas to enable the wireframes?

Your right, as amazing PP is; I wish some of the things in it were similar work flows as FCP were. The only reason why i made the switch in the first place is because of the cloud and how apples is more for final cut x (which sucks). Thanks for your help

When are Apple going to sort out the Final Cut Pro X Key Frame problem

Hello,
I’m trying to move three custom text clips to different locations on the screen & change the text size. The text clips drift around between two key frames with the same values. (“linear” is set on the red wire frame movement indicator) I know you can stop the drift by going to the first key frame, move forward one frame, add a key frame, wait for the rendering to complete then delete the key frame, then move to the next key frame, go back one frame, add a key frame, wait for the rendering to complete then delete the key frame. All this takes a considerable time. Does anyone know when Apple plan to fix this Key Frame bug? Or an easier way to stop the drift between key frames?
Thanks
JohnH

Yep, I hope KFs get a little bit of love in the next update too.
To make my KFs linear, I always do the move, then drop a dummy keyframe inbetween them and add/delete that KF until the Motion path stops showing a change. Linear interpolation will follow!
Pain but quite quick!!

Album frames don't display properly: Since .MAC converted to MobileME help?

ORIGINAL MESSAGE POSTED TO APPLE SUPPORT
Ever since .MAC was recently down - and converted to Mobile Me - I have been having problems with my iWEB site:
1. Frames around Photo Albums no longer display (on mac or win web browsers)
- On Windows Computers - The Frames do not Display at all
- On Mac (Safari or Firefox) they all look like see thru WIRE frames
2. iWEB text box frames (that were once hidden) now seem to Display and
they display in weir positions over and under other boxes.
3. Safari Web Browser now ask to load certain fonts!
4. Browsing my iWEB site is VERY VERY VERY SLOW!
- From home
- From work
- over at friends
In other words the speed of a persons internet connection does not seem to
make any difference. It was all beautiful and fine before the transition, and now
its slow.
I have not done an upload to .MAC from iWEB for several months - so I don't believe it is anything I have done.
My iWEB site is our FAMILY TREE site - so family members have been calling and telling me of the problems and the slowness over the past week.
PS: I like the extra 10GB of storage, and the new Mobile ME features seem cool --BUT I MUST GET our family iWEB site running smooth once again.
I have just recently upgraded to Leopard and for the most part everything is running fine - but as stated - I have NOT performed an iWEB upload using Leopard - the last was two months ago under Tiger.
MacBookPro Intel Core Duo
2.16GHz processor

Second posting to Support
Hello,
Ever since the transition - I'm still having the following problems with anyone trying to view my iWEB site (uploaded over 2 months ago before the Mobile ME transition).
(of note: I performed the MobileME system update yesterday and that did nothing)
1. Website redraw is VERY SLOW
2. Text Box FRAMES are now Visible - when they were not before!
3. Viewing my WEBSITE that I built using iWEB - the FRAMES applied to Photo and Movie Albums do not display properly as they did prior to the Apple mobile Me conversion. (see attached screenshot).
As stated I have not done an iWEB upload for over two months - and everything was working fine until this Mobile me conversion. Now when viewing on Mac or Windows all of my Photo Album frames display improperly (they look like see through wireframes) when viewing in Safari or MS Explorer. NOTE: The albums will NOT display at all using FIREFOX.

Since I recieved no responses I assume no one knows. Thanks anyway.

CAN Single Wire using NI PXI-8513/2

I used the C Code from the attached file to create the 2 VI's to Write and Read over CAN Single Wire using the PXI-8513. so far I don have communication. is there any other VI sample to send/receive frames using the Single Wire CAN ?

Hi rgomez7408
Any of the examples of xnet can work with single wire unless the bandwith restricts them. You need to change the property of your PXI card transciever to work single-wire and after this you can use any of the examples. The property node is located in the Functions Palettes>>Measurement I/O>>XNET>>Session Node. This node has a property called Interface>>CAN>>Transciever Type. You can set this property to SW and this means that it configures the PXI card to work with singlewire. After this you can use any example from the XNET folder.
I´m sending you also the XNET Manual in case you need more information
