i don’t know what way they done it so quickly, but I can manage it in photo shop using the magnetic tool I would have shown you an example but no attachments are allowed 😕

[Emma Louise Oates]

That’s pretty impressive… going to explore in photoshop. I’m still quite taken with the 2/3 screen layout 😮 :lol1:

very easy to do in EASYSIGN,
Arrange > masking> place in mask. 😀

its very easy in most software, as a visual, 2 or three clicks in signlab.
but I think the "badwrap" software claim to do it more accurately, and with the panels set out to print?

I can only go on other comments from other forums but the bad wrap accuracy is as good as any other vehicle templates. Most of the time they need to be checked with the actual vehicle and adjustments made to ensure they fit correctly.

[David Rowland]

wow… amazing what you can do in photoshop 😉

[Jason Davies]

simple just select the panels of the truck, magoc wand etc and make sure you have a copy of the flag in the clipboard or as he did it (I think) just cut and then select edit and paste into, dead easy.

[Kyle Bennett]

I dare say they all come with pre-defined layer masks for adding artwork onto

You can do this easily in Illustrator too with an outlines cd, just paste the artwork below the main drawing, then right click the body of the vehicle and click "Make Clipping Mask"

[Scott.Evans]

you can do this in signlab just as quick.
I like the way he has his screens set up dose anyone know what he has done there?

[Jason Davies]

He’s just added two monitor cards and uses all three screens as one, great for work flow.

Having experience with the Bad Wrap product, I’d have to (respectfully) disagree with the accuracy assessment.. oftentimes they’re quite different from the measurements taken from the vehicle. Checking measurements is part of the process though, so it’s easy to catch at the set-up stage.

It does make a great sales tool though, a design put into a bad wrap template looks very professional and gives the customer a better idea of what the wrap will look like as opposed to putting the design on a vector template.

I do this all the time. Its done in illustrator. Simply select the outer line of the vehicle, Making sure it is a complete connected path. overlap your image. when you are happy with the position, select both the outer vehicle line and the image. hold control and number 7 which is the shortcut to make a clipping mask.

voila!!! 😀

[Tobias Redig]

They’re using a layer mask in Photoshop. Can get the same result using a clipping mask in Illustrator.

[Peter Mindham]

I think JAG sell the software to do this also

I never said they were accurate. I said they are as good as any other vehicle templates and need to be checked against the actual vehicle.

I’d be lost without mine too Alan. My home and work computers are both dual screens. Going to a computer with a single screen is like operating with only one eye open now.. 😛

The demo is good, but I do this in corel anyway.
