P: Pasting as Layers (from illustrator)

Hello,

 

Does anyone else have the following issue, like I do?

1) In Illustrator, draw a rectangle (as far as I tested, only by using the rectangle tool, not the pen).

2) Apply a radius to one or more corners.

3) Mirror-transform the shape and copy it.

4) In Photoshop, paste as layers.

The shape is placed in its unmirrored state.

I have a suspicion that corners radiuses get reversed in cases where I didn't had to use a mirror transformation.

Here are samples from an ai file where I copied the shapes and the psd where I pasted them.

You can notice that in the psd file the second building, the shapes are upside-down .

Can you share the .ai file you're copying from? Post a URL to the file using CC files or dropbox, or something similar to share the file.
