Transformation settings
Allows you to configure how to transform image materials and drawings.
→ "When a text layer is selected"
Normal Cases
Transforming settings are shown when the following is is selected.
·Selecting an Image material layer with the [Object] sub tool
·Selecting a Vector layer or a Balloon layer with the [Object] sub tool
·When an item is selected from [Edit] menu → [Transform]
·Select the layer set in the light table with the [Light table] tool
|
|
Some settings may not display depending on the selected tool or sub tool. |
(1) Reset transformation
Restores the Layer to its original state before transforming.
(2) Flip Horizontal
Allows the layer to be horizontally reversed.
(3) Flip vertical
Allows the layer to be vertically reversed.
(4) OK
Confirms a transformation to a layer.
(5) Cancel
Restores the Layer to its original state before transforming and cancels the transformation.
(6) Mode
Allows you to set the transformation mode. When selecting a Vector layer, you can use the control points to transform.
Displayed items may vary depending on the selected Layer.
|
Move control points & Scale/Rotate [PRO/EX] |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging a handle allows you to scale up/down the entire drawing. Dragging a control point allows you to transform a line. With the rotation handle displayed, you can rotate by dragging the image. |
|
Move control point [PRO/EX] |
Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging a control point allows you to transform a line. |
|
Scale/Rotate |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging a handle allows you to scale up/down the entire drawing while keeping the angle of the guide line. With the rotation handle displayed, you can rotate the whole image by dragging. |
|
Scale |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging a handle allows you to scale up/down the entire drawing while keeping the angle of the guide line. The rotation handle will not display. |
|
Center of |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging a handle allows you to Rotate the entire drawing. |
|
Free Transform |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging a handle allows you to change the angle of the guide line and transform the entire drawing. |
|
Skew |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging the handles moves the whole side of the image in the direction of the the guide lines. |
|
Distort |
Handles, Guide lines and Control points are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging the corner handles of the bounding box adjusts it’s shape along the guide lines. Dragging the middle point handles of the bouding box, skews the shape along the guide lines. |
|
Perspective |
Handles and center of rotation are displayed for the drawing on the selected layer. Dragging any of the corner handles will move the opposite corner handle into the opposite direction. |
(7) Center of rotation
You can set the center of rotation for the layer you are editing.
You can select from [Center], [Top left], [Top right], [Bottom right], [Bottom left], [Top], [Left], [Right], [Bottom] and [Free position].
(8) Change vector width [PRO/EX]
When turned on, transforming a drawing on a vector layer changes the width of lines in conjunction with transform. When turned off, the original line widths are kept during transform.
(9) Keep original image
When turned on, the original image can be kept when moving or transforming.
|
|
This transformation option will appear when multiple layers are selected of the following types: Image material layers, Text layers, Balloon layers, Gradient Layers, Stream line layers and Saturated line layers. The original image is left on another layer. |
(10) Auto action settings [PRO/EX]
Allows you to configure how transform is recorded in the auto action.
Record scroll amount
Records the travel distance/orientation of a handle due to transform. When the auto action is run, all selected handles move the same distance in the same direction.
Record coordinates after transformation
Records the coordinate value of a transformed handle to an auto action. When the auto action is run, all selected handles move to the position (coordinate) recorded by the auto action.
|
|
This item can be configured when the transform is recorded in an auto action. |
(11) Change thickness while scaling [PRO/EX]
Allows you to change the thickness of the line in conjunction with the image size when a [Vector layer] or [Balloon layer] is scaled up/down using a handle.
When a text layer is selected
The following items are displaed when a text layer is selected with the [Object] Sub Tool or the [Text] tool.
(1) Show resize handle
Displays/hides resize handles for scaling up/down the text.
(2) Mode
Allows you to select the mode for transforming text.
|
Scale/Rotate |
You can Scale or Rotate selected text. ·Dragging a handle allows you to scale the image up or down. ·Dragging the rotation handle allows you to rotate the entire drawing. |
|
Scale |
You can Scale selected text. The rotation handle will display. |
|
Rotate |
You can Rotate selected text. Dragging a handle also Rotates text. |
|
Skew |
You can Skew selected text. Dragging the corner handles of the bounding box adjusts it’s shape along the guide lines. |
|
Scale/Rotate/Skew |
You can Scale, Rotate or Skew selected text. ·Dragging a handle allows you to scale the image up or down. ·Dragging the rotation handle allows you to rotate the entire drawing. ·Dragging the center handle allows you to [Skew] and change the angle of the of the entire text. When [Keep aspect ratio] is turned off, you can change the width and height of the entire text when scaling. |
(3) Keep aspect ratio
When this is on, the image will keep its original aspect ratio (proportions) when scaled up or down. The image keeps its original aspect ratio (proportions) when scaled up or down.
(4) Rotation angle
Sets the rotation angle of the text.
(5) Tilt (W)
Tilts the width of the text.
(6) Tilt (H)
Tilts the height of the text.
(7) Flip Horizontal
Filps the text horizontally.
(8) Flip Vertical
Filps the text vertically.
