I downloaded a PSD file containing buttons that i want to use on my website. Problem is i don't know how to access them for use on the website. How would i extract these buttons? or is there a better way to do it? here is a screenshot of the psd open in photoshop.
You can use this Slicer application:
http://testslicer.codeborg.com:9080/
I tried it and it works perfect. You must upload .png file and then set the slice lines. You must have clicked on the layer if you want to slice it. Try it, it's really simple.
I tried Nedoma's link and here is output:
First step: I crop your image nad add some lines
Second: I used Split function
It looks there are more functions but they works only when you're using transparent background.
If you want to hide text layers before processing in this tool, there is link to Photoshop script http://slicer.codeborg.com/hide-text-script.html
You could use the rectangular marquee tool, cut out the button you want, then create a image based off the button you just cut out. This will essentially give you the button you want, then in your website just have your button be that image.
If you are having trouble saving the individual button images, you need to learn how to use the slice tool

I'm using html2canvas to allow users to download a div element to their local files as an image.
What they are saving is an image with dynamic text on top of it that changes based on their user input (this whole div becomes one image).
The saving part works, and users can save the div as an image to their local files. However, the dynamic text moves downward and the image looks off because of it.
I tried to make changes to html2canvas code based on someone's solution on github, but it didn't work and I reset this code to the original.
Is this a common problem that others have faced? How do I solve this problem without hard-coding the solution (moving the dynamic text up on the web application so when it moves downward when saving, it looks how it's supposed to look)?
Thanks!
that I would like to say, there is a good (or maybe not) bootstrap framework that can generate buttons with simple code.
I really like how these buttons look, and I want to use them in another software, but for this I need them in PNG format.
Why is not satisfied with the option "manually" - the buttons need a lot and not always needed, but when needed - they need fast, do not really want to spend a lot of time creating buttons ...
Current process:
Open page (for example https://www.tutorialrepublic.com/twitter-bootstrap-button-generator.hhp) to set the necessary parameters (button name, size, type, color, icon ...)
Copy the whole screen to the buffer
Insert a screenshot from the buffer into an image editor
Make necessary cropping of this picture, leave only the image of the button itself
Save the result in png format
Use the image in your application.
That I would like to receive:
Open (no difference - internet page, any software, etc...)
Specify the required parameters (button text, size, color, icon)
Press the button - save to PNG, without loss of quality.
Use the image in your application
Maybe someone already solved a similar problem and translated it into a semi-automatic mode, share the implementation.
I use Win10 at workstation
The easiest way would be to manually crop them by Snipping Tool. This works great if you have just a few buttons.
But if you want to take them automatically, I think you can use an python/opencv script to idendify buttons, crop and save them.
Ok, solution found - ShareX (https://getsharex.com/) software with 1 hotkey (ctrl + printscreen) - open crop dialog with zoom, after crop - makes the png-file automatic
Is there any way to create clickable hotspots over a JPEG image in order to navigate to a different image/page? I would like to achieve this without having to code everything in manually and InVision has a lot of limitations.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
If you want to make parts of an image clickable, just use an image map. http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_map.asp
to do this without coding it in manually you will need some application to make the code for you. it'd be faster for a 1-time use to just set a size for your image, and then make areas (like div's) that are set in place of where it looks like a button on the image, and set their onclick to be a link to your other page or file.
I heard it was possible to create your layout out of a image using code.
So you would have a just one image instead of images for each button, header, footer etc.
You would then give coordinates and create shapes around the object for example a button.
Is there a name for this technique I'm searching for a tutorial.
As I correctly understand your question. It is called "image map" .
I have a very peculiar requirement and I am not an HTML expert. I need to create a CHM (Compiled HTML File) in which I want to use an image (a single screenshot) that will have parts of the image linked to other sections in the help file. In other words I want to hover the mouse to individual regions in the single screenshot to link to other parts of the help file.
Just for information the screenshot is a shot of various buttons and checkboxes that are a part of the application.
I do not wish to break up the single image into multiple images and then link each image to another part of the help file (that explains the function of the image). I think that is very much possible and not a problem at all.
If you can just in brief explain how this can be done or provide me a link I would be grateful.
You can use an Image Map for this. You basically have a normal image and then place various invisible shapes over the image. You can then use all the shapes for hover and click events.
With some googling I found this: http://www.htmlcodetutorial.com/images/images_famsupp_220.html
Consider using an HTML image map, which you can create online here. An HTML image map is a set of tags describing various regions of an image that can have links of their own.
Aren't those called "image maps"? HTML has a tag called <area> (and <map> itself) which allows you to do this.

Try the HTML Image Map:

You'll need to use an image map for this. If you want to get a bit fancy and have rollover's for this you could think about using the ImageMapster jQuery plugin.
