    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    OK, here are 2 pieces I made so far: Anyone else had a go?

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Great. The first link is mostly about setting it up in AI and PS and the second link is for the script. There's loads to read, but most useful are between me, DrStrik9 and c.pfaffenbichler so far. The whole process works, from creating the grid in AI, pasting it into PS as a Path and then...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Hi Sam, OK I posted a few questions on the adobe forums and I think we've nearly cracked it! I can now do exactly what I wanted; automatically cut up an image into new layers per section based on a complex geometric pattern created in AI. Very cool! There are still a couple of niggles we're...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Thanks Sam, yeah I can do diagonals, was just really thinking about the guideline method, if I can get it work, to get all the slicing done in one go.

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    OK, tried New Layer Based Slice, didn't work. It didn't actually slice the image along guides, let alone put each part on new layer. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Also, don't think it's possible to create diagonal guides from what I've read. Does anyone know any different? I think it...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Ok I this might be a solution. 1. Set up some guidelines in whatever grid pattern you like. 2. Slice by guide. Select slice tool and in options bar press 'slice by guide' button. 3. Create new layers per slice. Layer > New Layer Based Slice. If it works, will be great! Will have to be able...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Ok I found a javascript to automatically cut picture up into 10px X 10px with a new layer for each. You can change size of each layer slice from 10px to whatever you want by editing squareSize. /* --------Photoshop Script - Grid to Layers------------ Author: Oisin Conolly...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Thanks Sam. I'm sure I read somewhere you could do it automatically and PS would put each cut out into a separate layer? I just can't remember where I saw it? Thanks again

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Thanks Sam, that's getting closer to what I want. I wouldn't have thought of cutting out of a duplicate image and copying them on. This could work, to make is really complex, I could make a range of different sized shapes to use as cut out templates (I'm sure that's not the technical name!) in...

    Illustrator Using a geometric grid to cut up a picture to rearrange

    Hi, I'm trying to find out how to cut up an image using a geometric grid that I can create in Illustrator. Today I've learnt how to make the grid, using a tutorial I've found, but now I need to learn how to use this grid to cut a picture along all of the lines, so that I can rearrange some of...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Hi Sam, thanks. I've been searching through tutorials all day too. I've found some great stuff, but can't post links here yet as I'm a new member. I've managed to recreate picture 3, using a similar method to the one you described, just adding in some rotation to create arrows. I've also...

    How to create (or use) geometric structures and complex grids to cut/ rearrange?

    Hi, this is a number of questions on one. I'd like to be able to use geometric structures and complex grids to be able to cut up and rearrange aspects of photos that I have taken. Is there a way to do this easily and efficiently in PS? I can't find an exact example of what I want to do, but...
