Hey everyone
I'm in the process of building my own cabinet, and I wanted to make my own artwork aswell.
I have a simple knowlagde of Photoshop, and I'll be watching some guides aswell.
I'm using the "Project Mame" build from Rasmus Kønig Sørensen.
http://www.koenigs.dk/mame/eng/draw.htmI wanted to make a "template" or "outline" of the cabinet sides, and controlpanel in Photoshop, so I know which parts will be on the cabinet and which parts will be cut off.
I was planing on making the image about 10 cm. bigger in both directions, so I have 5 cm. of extra artwork, all the way around. In case I did'nt cut it 100%.
But sense the sides isn't 1 big square, and I don't wanna risk my artwork not fitting, I wanted to make an outline of the sides and controlpanel, so I know where what goes, once I actually print it.
However I can't seem to figure out how to draw in Photoshop, while being able to tell Photoshop how long the lines are.
If I need a line to be 50 cm. I have to draw by free hand, and how to land near 50 cm.
I want to be able to draw a line, click it and tell it this like has to be 50,00 cm.
Is this possiable? Or is there a better way to get my "outline".
Hope someone can help
