    Question slicing

    Hi

    I have an image 760px wide that I want to divide/slice exactly into 10 "slices" of 76px .wide

    Is there an easy way to do this or is it place vertical guides and use the snap to option and rectangles etc?

    thanks

    Ian

    Draw a line (snapped) from the top left corner to below the bottom left. Set duplication distance to 76pix and duplicate as necessary.

    Keith - Hi

    In reply to Ian's question you suggested a way of slicing an image using the Duplicate method. I tried to do as you suggested and the duplication works fine, but when I Select ALL the lines along with the Image to be sliced, the slicing does not happen. It only slices the left most bit.

    If, however, I proceed to select each line at a time and then select the image and then slice it, it works fine but this seems laborious.

    Am I missing out something in your suggested procedure ?

    Thanks

    Ctrl+4 is the shortcommand for slicing. Select all 10 lines and the image. Hold down the ctrl-key, then hit 4 ten times. Done.

    I deliberately stopped short of the actual slicing as it's not something I do a lot of. However, Joscari's method seems to work really well.

    Sven - Thanks a lot for the tip. Yes that worked. Hadn't realised I had to hit the key more than once.
