• JavaFX 8: how to make better anti-aliasing?

  Is it possible to determine the best antialiasing with JavaFX 8? I'm creating an application that requires controls rotation and they look pretty bad, you can see a serrated line even with smooth turned on. I also tried to adjust the default value of DISABLED SceneAntialiasing to BALANCED, but I guess it's just for 3D scenes and nothing helped. All recommendations on how I can improve this?

  Thank you.

  The smooth property is any hint how JavaFX should apply to a filtering algorithm internal to generate the imageview pixels when you have values of fitToWidth/fitToHeight for your ImageView. that is, it is unrelated to anti-aliasing.

  JavaFX does not provide parameters to configure anti-aliasing on a per node basis, on a basis of scene/subpicture.

  By default when you create a scene, JavaFX sets anti-aliasing to false for the scene.

  If you specify aliasing as SceneAntialiasing.BALANCED (rather than the default SceneAntialiasing.BALANCED), then your image in rotation will have images smooth (at least it worked for me on a Macbook Air + Java8u20 2012).

  Here is a small test program that you can try.

              )
          );
          Node node = imageView;
  //        Node node = rectangle;
  
          node.relocate(M - 0.5, M - 0.5);
          node.setRotate(R);
  
          Group root = new Group(node);
  //        Scene scene = new Scene(root, W + M*2, H + M*2, false, SceneAntialiasing.BALANCED);
          Scene scene = new Scene(root, W + M*2, H + M*2);
          System.out.println(scene.getAntiAliasing());
          stage.setScene(scene);
          stage.show();
      }
      public static void main(String[] args) {
          launch(args);
      }
  }

• Windows 8 and anti-aliasing of fonts

  Hello!

  This is my first post in the Microsoft community.
  I'm a big fan of this company, and that I usually use their products in my studies, work, mail... etc.
  I've used Windows since XP, and I'm very happy with the last windows8.
  Windows 8 is much more fluid and more "BOLD", I love it!
  There's only one small problem, but it's really important me: font smoothing.
  I started using Ubuntu lately in my brother's laptop, and I was completely impressed by the display of fonts on it.
  It seems bigger, more professional and more :-)
  The police is 'acceptable' on windows only when it is greater than 50px.
  I see an evolution on this way on IE for ie9, but it certainly not the same as Ubuntu
  Can they take this thinking in mind when working with blue windows, or they will ignore it and continue with the fonts as 15years ago...

  Hello!

  I would like to offer a way to adjust your font smoothing.  To account for many types of LCD monitors and different types of pixels, Windows has adjustments to the police of smoothing method it uses.  It is possible that an optimal method of inferiority is currently used.  Here is how to adjust it:
  1. Open your startup screen and type the word "clear" (search results appear when you start typing).
  2. Select the category of settings on the right, then click on the result of research called "adjust ClearType text' to start the ClearType text.
  3. Click next in the wizard and then step through the calibration.  At each stage, you will be asked to click on the text that is best for you.  This will allow Windows to use better anti-aliasing of fonts for your system and your preference.

• Why anti-aliasing Illustrator CC exported files in Photoshop, even when turned off anti-aliasing?

  Hi all

  I just changed to CC of CS5. My Illustration workflow involves export from Illustrator to Photoshop. I disable anti-aliasing in the export options in Photoshop to make net angles. For example,.25 black line exports ch as a wide black line of a pixel.

  When exporting CC of Illustrator, I select 'none' to the anti-aliasing when exporting, but art is anti-aliasing in Photoshop. For example, exports of line noire.25 to PS as a line blurred grayscale.

  Have I missed something or that I can't export a line of true crenellated Illustrator to Photoshop more?

  Thanks for any help!

  This problem has been FIXED in the version of Illustrator CC 2014.

  Now I can use it!

• Illustrator for the Export PNG - without Anti-Aliasing/Bi-cubic interpolation

  There is something missing when you export PNG images in illustrator (file > export) so when the images that have been resized in illustrator get exported, get no not a subsampling anti alising/correct treatment.

  It is a scaling in illlustrator to 88% of the images. The first Image is a PNG export , while the second image is saved through Save for Web... the difference between the qualities of anti-aliasing is obvious:

  

  

  It is important to note that export a JPEG file and choosing 'Art optimized' in the anti aliasing tab gives deirable results but such an option does not exist when exporting png.

  You sure?

• CC of the Illustrator's anti-aliasing to white (?) on the edge of the exported TIFF

  Example of how to reproduce the problem is quite simple:
  On project empty to create rectangle in any color (let's make it green).
  Export to TIFF with any anti-aliasing option turned on.
  Exported TIFF gets extreme right and bottom line lighter pixel, because it would be anti-aliasing on the edge with something white.

  How can I get rid of this and make these same two lines at the top and to the left (no lighter color). I need to sample for tile seamless and the only way to be, I found for a moment is 'manual' correction of these two lines in any bitmap image editor.

  Same problem is with JPG and PSD export. Export WMF gets white line at the bottom (not lighter green, but white). Export BMP rectangle gives solid green without lighter lines, because I want it to be.
  As I do a tile seamless for printing on fabrics, I need to format PSD or TIFF with ICC profile. Of course my tile is not as simple as the clear green rectangle, but it's easier to reproduce the problem I found.

  Try another resolution, as a multiple of 72; 288 ppi.

  300 / 72 = 4, 166666666666666666

  Is not a round number, causing anti-aliasing.

• Bug in CS5 render anti-aliased text in "save for web".

  Looks like there is a bit of a bug when using 'save for web and devices' with light weights of type in CS5 for Mac. Although the slim type looks good while working in Illustrator, as soon as you enter the "Save for web" dialog, it gets seriously distorted. It seems that this issue has been present at least since CS4. It happens not in Photoshop. It seems particularly bad for light text on dark background.

  Some people may say ' of course, Illustrator is not really intended for work intensive bitmap. However, with features like "look pixelated" and 'hold on to the pixels', Illustrator is (usually) become a very effective way for web design, and personally I prefer it to Photoshop. It is also clear that Adobe intends it to be used in this way. In order to make anti-aliasing bug is certainly a problem. Just surprised that they don't have not address it when CS5 is born.

  I have implemented some images on http://www.thesheep.co.uk/2011/06/24/illustrator-save-for-web-anti-aliasing-problems/ example to illustrate the problem.

  Are there any smart workaround for this? It's a bit annoying to have to hover over stuff in PS before exporting, but maybe that's what I have to do. I hope that Adobe will address this soon.

  In save for web go to the "Image size" tab and select type optimized menu. It takes the smoothing parameter that you selected in the character Panel.

  Get better when you do it like that?

• Illustrator CS4 - when I save it for the web my vectors are pixelated. Help!

  I've recently updated to CS4 (I know, I'm always late), but since when I "save for web" my vectors appear pixelated. It seems worse when I want a transparent background. My pictures are for the web and it won't.

  I have read a lot about this and can't seem to fix my problem, but here is what I tried: anti-aliasing is checked, view > preview raster, view > preview overprinting, the object > pixelation and probably a few other things. If anyone can help me with this problem it would be GREATLY appreciated! I have attached a picture so you can see what I mean. I created this schematic in Illustrator CS4 and saved for the web with a transparent background and, as you can see, it seems pixelated everywhere.

• Illustrator CS4 PSD files import problem

  I suddenly have trouble cleaning importing Illustrator CS4 files in Photoshop CS4.  I use these products for years and have done this hundreds of times without difficulty.  But all of a sudden, the resulting files are not smoothed.

  Illustrator files are saved with the PDF compatibility option checked.  I tried to place them (and by engaging - I know they're looking bad but clean after validation) and I tried to paste from Illustrator.  Not here are the relatively simple files with no font - text only - and no transparency or effects.  I also tried to save as EPS files, but without success.  I took to export PNG since Illustrator files and import that.

  I'm short on a recent Mac tower with a lot of everything.  OS x 10.6.7 and everything is up-to-date.  Adobe Creative Suite CS4.

  Could something has been corrupted?  Something might be interfering?  Is there a setting preference-"Import Illustrator files nicely" which must be marketed?

  Thanks for all the ideas.

  When you place an EPS, PDF file or HAVE - there is an option in the options toolbar that says "smoothing". Make sure it's on.

  If you open a file in EPS, PDF or AI - there is a checkbox in the first dialog box that asks you the page number, resolution, etc. that says 'Anti-Aliasing (in the Page Options group). Make sure it's on.

• anti-aliasing using the 9233

  
  

  Hi Jeff,

  The first thing that you should start with is a guide to the delta sigma converter:

  It is the ADC that is used on the 9233. The delta sigma converter has a built-in inherent anti-aliasing filter. If you look at the dynamic features section of 9233 operating manual it will show you some of the features of this filter. The filter is a digital and the bandwidth and the stopband are calculated according to the sampling rate, you specify the 9233. If you give a sampling frequency of 50 kHz,-3 dB attenuation point bandwidth will be 50 k * 0.45 = 22.5 kHz. If all the components below 22.5 kHz will be kept completely and everything above that will be alleviated. This ensures that you will get no aliasing.

  If you apply a 20 kHz filter after that you'll still good data because the threshold for the anti-aliasing filter is greater than the maximum sampling frequency (50 kHz).

  Please let me know if this clarifies this question a little better.

• Vectorization Anti-Aliasing?

  I am trying to import some QR codes in illustrator and then using vectorization on them to convert them into vectors. The funny this is that even if the image source files are perfectly clean all the way up to 3200% magnification, all forms are perfectly numbers of pixels, and all angles are perfect of the 1990s, they come out of the own vectorization.

  Some, not all, the lines are a little teensy swollen and blurred. I thought that this could be a problem with it does not line up for the grid of pixels correctly so I tried snaps to the pixel before tracing. I tried with the 300 and 72 ppi image sources, which were perfectly clean in photoshop. I tried the formats PNG and JPEG formats for the source files. in my trace options, the blur is set to 0, as is the path of fitting. I still can't come out clean. The only conclusion I can draw is there some kind of Anti-Aliasing going on but I can't find a way around.

  Any ideas?

  Nothing wrong. You don't understand how to work these algorithms and using a wrong workflow. Simply rebuild the QR code by drawing a sqaure around the whole area, and then convert the object into a grid with lines / columns, delete the empty boxes. It takes 2 minutes.

• More specific anti-aliasing prevents multiple images rendering at the same time after awhile

  Hi all.

  I am experiencing inconsistent memory, behaviour management when rendering my AE project that prevents me from making several images at the same time when some elements of film use accurate antialiasing.

  I have a processor 8-core i7 MacBook Pro with 8 GB of RAM and I am using AE CS5.5. I visited a project with several Illustrator layers imported to keep things nice and crispy. Here is a 3D with one camera, DOF, composition and they are continuously rasterized. On some of the vector assets I have to set the antialiasing for "More precise" in the dialog box interpret footage to address some problems with image quality. Here's what I noticed when rendering:

  1. when anti-aliasing on all assets of Illustrator is set on "Faster" return it without issues composition.

  2. I change the setting of antialiasing on some assets of the Illustrator to "More specific" to improve the quality of the image. Made of several images at the same time is off. Composition makes for a while, but eventually I get an error: "after effects error: unable to allocate enough memory for file antialias (50:5).

  3. to work around the error I load AE to empty the memory cache all 5 images or less via the Secret menu in the preferences. This prevents the error from happening and I can see the RAM being deallocated when from time to time as expected. This allows me to return the quality I need, but it is slower.

  4. in order to expedite things I light made simultaneous multiple images. I use the conservative settings: AE is to use only two hearts with 3 GB of RAM by heart (the maximum allowed). The rendering is accelerated. However, I see that the system "in use" RAM continues to increase at each image made up until the computer runs out, how AE automatically turns off made simultaneous multiple images and begins to display one image at a time. This does not happen whe all vector assets are defined to use fast antialiasing one I can make indefinitely with simultaneous multiple images rendering, but I don't get this way the desired quality. Please note that there is enough RAM for the carrots for multiple images rendering, but it seems as if having made a frame, the system is not free or reuse the memory when assets use specific anti-aliasing and will use another piece until there is no more.

  Also, I'm outputing to a sequence of images.

  Please help me to find a workaround for this problem. Thank you!

  This is probably a software design limitation (or bug) in the underlying code of Illustrator and there is no work around for this. You might dutifully report it here, but it's as good as it gets, and even when you do, you shouldn't be pregnant it be fixed anytime soon. In 12 years of use AE, that kind of thing never worked 100% right...

• Icon anti-aliasing problem

  Howdy all

  I'm trying to edit vector files to icons of vector shapes with a black fill with a transparent background. I managed. However, large icons, when reduced to 64 x 64 or 48 x 48 who have anti-aliasing have pixels that are white or light color that doesn't look great on background dark or gradient, where I want to place them.

  I guess I could reproduce the background then drop forms. Whenever I have downsize, pixels have a light shade of gray, whatever the origin.

  Does anyone have experience with this problem? I guess I could downsize without anti-aliasing that would be better than having a variable light contour!

  Thank you

  Doug

  Does this mean that all icon sets that still exist must be twisted hand based on the background that they are intended?

  Yes, most are and no doubt you'll agree you can always such good ogical of bad ones that have not been refined. Yet, there is no need to create different sets for different background colors. The common consensus on the older types of pallet-based icon like you create them set them against black and make sure that the transparent color is set evenly. The specific format will depend on your target platform, in any case. Windows Vista and Win 7 can scale life the large icon formats to smaller sizes and solitary wil resort to the smalelr versions, if they are incorporated in the icon resource. They also support full 24 bit png with transparency. Other operating systems will use png 8-bit or dedicated icon file formats. Mobile devices use png and SVG... So it's really not a whole answer here. You can of course reduce the size without interpolation using the method of nearby neearest, Botr, it can do more damage than good. A better workflow would be to downsize conventioanlly, then convert to indexed color and unify the colors that have been stripped...
