Attach to path

[JoJo]

Hi!

How can I do "Attach to path" [ - the same as in FreeHand...]?

[I have 10 circles in different layers... & I want them to be arranged in a certain path.]

Thanks!

using Photoshop 7 or...?
having drawn the circles as paths, or as stroked selections or...???

 

[JoJo]

hmm...

stroked selections... PS 6...

It is much easier to draw a circle with the ellips marquee tool (use shift as you know to draw a circle, and alt to start from the centre), and draw a second one that will automatically add (the cursor gets a + sign. you can also use the other options from the toolbar), and a third etc, and then stroke at the end.

Should your shape on ten layer be difficult to reproduce and you really need it badly, then just say so, and we'll come up with a solution. But it will be more complicated.

Quick

I already worked a lot on those 10 circles... & I don't have much time to start all over... I just need to arrange them in a certain path... that all :\

thanks

Only way I know to do it in Photoshop is through a 3rd party filter: Human Software's Otto Paths.
