: Re: How do I make a hanging indent on right-aligned text in InDesign? I am formatting a Hebrew bible in InDesign for my class, but I'm having trouble with making indents in a way that I can
There is not much to it. It’s the classic way to style lists in any design or word processing application.
Step 1: You indent the whole paragraph by a certain value, e.g. 20 mm
Step 2: You set a negative indent for first line with the same value, e.g. –20 mm
Step 3: You set a tab stop at the same value (e.g. 20 mm) and use a tab in every first line of the paragraph.
Now everything falls into place perfectly. The text in every first line because of the the tab, all following lines use the paragraph indendation. The figures in every first line are placed correctly through the negative indent.
: Re: Why is InDesign pushing short words to the next line? As shown in the image, "the" easily fits on the line above but regardless of what I do, InDesign pushes it down to the next line.
If you work with Windows press Control+Alt+X between the two words to eliminate the forced line break.

You cannot as you specifically describe it ... that the text will auto resize to best-fit into the box. Perhaps the reason why is that one can manually control both height and width percentage so how would PS automatically know what you want?
: Re: How to stroke an open path (vector) I'm on photoshop cs6 I am doing a vectorial drawing, i wanted to draw a path without closing it but that was impossible. If i don't close my path, it
Select the path. (press A and click the Path)
Click edit → Define Custom Shape (name your Shape)
Select "Custom Shape" from the Tools palette and select your newly created shape
Now you will be able to stroke your path easily
: Re: Preserve SmartObject link I'm using a smart object at two places (in the same file), and I need them to be linked, so that if I edit the content of one, the changes are applied on the other.
To expand a little on what I said in the comments.
In order to retain the Embedded Smart Object links, you need to keep them in the same document. Technically the contents of an Embedded Smart Object are in a separate .psb file, so that is a no-no.
What you should do is copy the contents of bg copy Smart Object back to the main document and make new copies of the original Smart Objects to make sure they are in sync.
So something like this:

Save For Web has an Optimize to File Size option. It does have limits especially if you don't let it pick between Gif and Jpg. Say taking a 6000x6000 photo and wanting it to be 50kb isn't going to work.

: Re: Apply an action to each item in a selection in turn? If you use an Illustrator action on a selection, it applies it to that selection as a whole. Illustrator actions can be applied as 'batches',
This works:

: Re: InDesign: manual line break and justified text I have the following problem: Hi have a numbered list in which one of the paragraphs has a manual linebreak. Now normally this would not be a
Here's what I suggested in the comments in more detail.
The idea here is that indesign lists can continue from the last number, so you can divide a list into multiple paragraphs maintaining the list form. So you just style every second paragraph to not have the list numbering.
You take the List Paragraph style and duplicate it. You can find duplicate option from the context list if you right click the list paragraph style.
For this example I name my paragraph styles: List - Heading and List - Body
In List - Heading options make the next style List - Body
make sure that List - Heading has Mode set to Continue from previous number.
Remove the numbering from the body paragraph style...
adjust justify and indents of the body paragraph style...
So as long as you format the text just like in your second example image, you now have a list with headings..

Hi friends I am a geologist.
I have a geological map and I will edit it in a CAD program, but there are transparent pixels in the image file and my CAD program perceives it as a white background.

: Re: InDesign: Have picture next to text, but keep it in the text flow Ok, I hope the title is descriptive enough, as I have no idea how one does call what I am about to ask lol Here's what
You could offset the images using Object > Anchored Object > Options....
You'll want to set Position to Custom and just make the reference point top right corner. This alone should get you quite close, but you can also adjust x and y offsets to fine tune it.
Now before you go and change these settings separately for all the images, I'd urge you to look into Window > Styles > Object styles. In this panel you can create, apply and manage styles easily. Make a new object style and apply this style to all the images you want to adjust and then modify the Anchored Object Options to suit your needs:

New person here! I am messing around with logos at the moment, and I want to make the text's path bigger like making it bold. I know you can do this by duplicating an object and adding a stroke to one of them and then unite them, but the process becomes tedious especially while working with large amounts of text. Is there any way to automate this? Or is there an alternative solution? Thank you!

You'll want to use the Pencil tool instead of Brush tool. It allows you to do pixel level edits without any anti-aliasing (the fuzzy area). It's located below the Brush tool or can be accessed by repeatedly pressingShift+B until it cycles around.

There are many outlets available to designers to acquire data and drive design decisions.
With the rise of AI in the realm of marketing automation and analysis how can individual designers make use of data to improve their design decisions?
Specifically on the more artistic side of design. Should I be posting to Pinterest or Instagram and just seeing which gets the best responses or are there other more efficient means? And as I'm not very business savvy how much data should I look for before I even drive conclusions from them?
Please be sure to cite any research you may have on the subject as part of your answer.

Is it possible to create a mask of two images, one where you have the background and one where you have the background and the subject.
The mask being the background that has the background removing the subject.

: Re: How do you nearly darken an image in Photoshop? I have been trying to darken pictures of animals but the it only darken the darks and I wanted the whites to darken. What are ways to accomplish
If this is what you're looking for, just simply add a Brightness/Contrast filter with both brightness and contrast set to 0. Then change the blend mode of the filter to "Multiply". This will darken the image, hopefully in the way you want.
However, this is not the only way to darken the image. The same result can be achieved by applying other filters such as Levels (Ctrl + L) and Curves. Play around with the values until you get what you want.

I wouldn't give out bank account information.
Take cash, Square, PayPal or check. If using cash then invest in a receipt book with carbon copy that both you and the customer can sign and date for proof of purchase.
Regarding the bank account info -- this may be different outside the US but I still wouldn't do it. There's just no reason in my opinion to give out bank account information when there's other options available.
: Re: Sketch Questions regarding symbols I've a few questions regarding Sketch - Sketch keeps expanding my symbol folders, it seems random and makes it more challenging to find what I want. Is there
I often faced a same issues with you, however, you may find these ideas work.
Create a Sketch library file, and try to put symbols as much as you can.
Make sure you manage important symbols on the library file.
I recommend you not to manage symbols level-deeper. more than 4. When you try to manage level-deeper symbols, it often makes Sketch having problems whether the version is newer or not.

Currently I am working with a 128 x 128 image in Photoshop. I have grid lines dividing it into 9 sub-sections. When I use the marquee tool to select one of theses subsections it refuses to snap to the grid lines even though it is set to snap to them. I have also tried using guides with the same result. I have also tried setting the exact size of the box I am trying to select and I am still unable to change the result.

: Re: Simplest way to resize a folder filled with pixel art I'm trying to compile a nice website/portfolio for internships etc, and I have a folder filled with pixel art I've done (100's of images,
You could use imagick's convert with "point" filter
Just run loop over all your files like so:
for inputfile in *;
do
convert "$inputfile" -filter Point -resize x256 +antialias "$inputfile".scaled.png;
done
Replace x256 with desired height and change extension as you like.
…this would be for Linuxshell - but there's a Windows version, too.

: Re: Run actions without graphic interface, Illustrator Is it possible to run an Illustrator (or Photoshop) action without running the processes for displaying it? I assume this would speed up the
by "running the processes for displaying", I am assuming you mean you can see each step of the action being run.
Well, photoshop or illustrator actions are just a shortcut way of doing repetitive things without you having to do them manually.
If you have an action to create square and center it. The software does each step on its own on your artboard. It selects the tool to create a square and creates the square. There is no background process where the action calculates the end result and renders the output on your artboard. Each step is carried out in front of you. You can also pause the action while it does so. You could pause the action before the software centers the square.

I am looking to use 1000 images of different people and tile them in rows and columns. I tried using the Contact Sheet II feature in Photoshop but I get white gaps between the columns. I've looked into Mosaic apps, but they require a main image and then the multiple images that will make up the main one.
I just need a grid of all the images. It seems simple but can't find a way to do it.
: Re: Make path that have same space between each other inner triangle I have created triangle, I want to create lines inner it. I successfully created some lines, but the space between other line
Like I said in my comment, one way would be to Lego it up and use small triangles to form the big one.
You could make the gap with a stroke by aligning it inside so that you can easily snap them together. If you move the first triangle holding down Alt, you can repeat that with Cmd+D.
So basically:
Make the first triangle
I used red stroke to make aligning easier.
Copy / Move using mouse while holding down Alt
Repeat using Object > Transform > Transform again (Cmd+D)
Repeat until you got enough for the half of the bottom row
Group it Cmd+G
Copy Cmd+C
Paste in place Cmd+F
Rotate. I used Free transform tool E.
Align so that the saw teeth match.
You could do this by drawing a disposable rectangle. Size doesn't really matter as long as the right side is touching the vertical cernter of the right most triangle in the bottom half. Select that and the top half of the first row and use Window > Align with key object being the rectangle.
Copy / Move the whole bottom row using mouse while holding down Alt
Repeat using Object > Transform > Transform again (Cmd+D)
Repeat until you got enough to form the big triangle
Remove the extra triangles.
First I selected all of the triangles and then I used Shape builder tool Shift+M to unify the triangles I didn't need. Then I just selected them with the Selection Tool V and backspaced them out of my life.
: Re: Photoshop CS6: problem with cropping animated gif after moving layers So I started making animated gif images for a little side project lately and encountered a problem for which I couldn't find
I know it's an old question, but I had the same problem today while editing an animation in Photoshop. Then I figured out Crop tool has a checkbox called "Delete cropped pixels" and unchecking it fixes the issue for me.
I don't really know the reason why deleting cropped pixels messes up positions for other frames in animation, and if this is just a side effect of something else, but I tried it a couple of times to confirm that with that box checked it causes the issue, and when I uncheck it before cropping all the frames stay in their places as they should.
Hope it helps.
