2. Re: how to create "Picture Frame" effect???
Mark Embrey Jan 26, 2011 3:33 PM (in response to Mike Gondek2)Hi Mike!
thanks for the quick response
- Draw 2 rectangles - done, no problem
- CM 8 to make compouind path - done, no problem
- Put this on top of your painting - done, no problem
- CMD 7 To make a mask - every time I try this I'm getting the following error:
"Can't make clipping mask. The selection must contain more than one object"
any ideas?
thanks again!
Mark

Mark Embrey Jan 26, 2011 3:57 PM (in response to Mike Gondek2)hey Mike,
I did it all again, this time using regular rectangles (instead of rounded ones - just wanted to keep it as simple as possible for proof of concept - and now I get
an image like your #3 (counting left to right, top down).
How do you get to image #4?
thanks!
Mark
