Create Path from Shape |
|||||
This command saves a shape outline as a path and deletes the source shape layer*.
Why convert a shape to a path? For example, to raster-stroke it (see example). Or to incorporate a vector drawing into a JPEG file (unlike shape layers, paths can be stored with various image formats). *To create a shape-based path without deleting the source layer, select this layer in the Layers palette, open the Paths dialog, and apply the Saving Path command. |
