help with gradients...

Hello

I have some pictures I want to add a radial gradient (cirlcular).  I want to show the middle part of the photo (full opacity) and then it go to zero opacity on the edges of a circle (essentially melted to white).  I have a background layer that is white.

I'm sure it's pretty simple, but I can't understand it...

Thank you

Thanks for the reply,

I'm still a little confused... I've selected the Elipse tool and traced a circle (which creates a new layer above my picture and fills with color)... How can I add this circle as a vector mask to my image layer?  I use CS4 in Photoshop... whatever?   I thought I could use the gradient tool...

Thanks for your help.

Gary

I don't have CS4, but I don't know it must support vector masks and have control of the pen for the masks. The following works in CS5.1.

Make sure that the Ellipse tool is set to Path mode in the Options bar. Draw the circle. With the selected circle and targeted the image layer, press command (Ctrl on Windows) that you clicked the Add button hides at the bottom of the layers panel. Then in the masks Panel, adjust the feather.

Another option is to use a circle in a pixel in the layer mask. Target layer of the image, then click on the mask icon Add at the bottom of the layers panel. Make sure that the white mask is focused and draw a black circle with the Ellipse tool in the pixel mode. In the masks Panel, click on reverse then adjust the feather.

You can use a radial gradient as a mask layer and then creating the gradient while the mask is targeted by adding a regular pixel mask. You can work with the mask visible as an image to grayscale by Opt/Alt-click on the thumbnail.

  • Hello need help with the opacity mask.

    Hello need help with the opacity mask. I hope someone out there can help

    I inherited a logo that appears to use a Logo of OM has a shape with a grad. This grad at first sight is not used in the Grad scheme and there is not editable.  Looking at the transparency palette I find an OM (pic1) output option. If I choose what the grad on separates it from the page of the form, that is from there I can change/remove as required (Note2).

    However, sometimes (he did no change), I'll be back to the same original form and output option is grayed out and is no longer available. Or I go to the similar shape that has the same treatment and I can't go out OM (pic3)

    The only difference is the thumbnail in the transparency palette, which is strong in pic1 and rated on pic3. What Miss me?    I'm not clear what the advantage is simply OM using the Grad palette to apply a grad in my form, but until I can get rid of OM who is there, I can't comfortably apply to the grad I want.

    The white gradient LHS I have no problem with. I choose fortunately only and each time get the possibility of release of OM.

    The other thing weird. When I select the white gradient. Sometimes, the exit option is in the palette without going through the drop-down list (Fig 4).

    Other times seems not that OM has already been applied, because the palette gives me the ability to mask rather than liberation (5 photos). Until I go to the drop down and then I find Release is an option after all.

    What is the difference here?   Not much of a problem, because either way I can release OM to be able to change the grad.

    The file is passed through several hands and play anywhere to try to resolve issues, and many stops and save slot, so something along the line was of course done a logo and not the other because of the difference, but I can't for the life of me see what that.

    Dave,

    I've (mis) understanding the issues, you can account for the box to the right in the main palette transparency (called thumbnail) here.

    represents the masking objects.

    Some of your screenshots show no object mask, so it only is not really a mask even if do the opacity mask has been clicked and there seems to be one in the layers palette, wherever you look.

    I think that it is perhaps the issue.

  • Making the ear of corn and need help with the ball.

    I do some corn on the COB for an illustration and I need help with the texture of the ball. I've been slowly making progress with gradient for kernels mesh, but I can't seem to recreate the look of the ball at all. I tried to recreate it in a rectangle by using the option in the menu object (1 row, 50 columns) gradient mesh and I'm trying with the fusion in object mode, but not lucky yet. Can someone help to put me on the right track to make the texture:

    Tank,

    You have published three images stylistically very different. The first is photographic and call probably (but not necessarily) for graduates of mesh. The other two are graphical treatments (and frankly, they're both rather flat; lack of depth).

    Illustration style extends the range of cartoonish in sketchy photo-realism and all the rest. The problem is you didn't show your own attempt so that anyone can have an idea of what you're trying to achieve the stylistic point of view.

    I just need to put in place so that the final step does not appear the whole box. The problem now is trying to make the style of the good brush to reproduce the effect...

    You seem to think you have to build a kind of linear construction and then find a way to reshape the shape of each part of the leaf. Yes, you pouvez approach it this way, but Illustrator users has often tend to be what aunt Molly would call "too clever by half."

    Not everything must be something semi intelligent auto or complex and tedious consruct involving brushes, envelopes, masks, etc, etc. Much can be accomplished by thinking that he just thanks to measure you draw directly economic paths and constructions, which take no more time (often less) and result in very tidy, simple files. Again, a lot depends on what you are trying to achieve the stylistic point of view. But here's an example that only took a few minutes to draw:

    If the above consists of:

    Three roads closed, 8 points each, with ordinary linear degrees

    Three mixtures of open path with three anchor points for each key path

    Six paths closed for shadows / highlights, with 19 points in total

    Mixtures being directly from the paths drawn comic forms, the spacing of the veins 'automatically' and intuitively follows the width from point of view of the worksheet.

    Rather than to build a boilerplate brush, colouring and the weight of each of the three main paths of the vein mixtures can be set individually at any time, simply directly by selecting the key path.

  • Drawing with gradient fill Ellpise

    Hello

    I had a problem with the ellipse is filled with gradient drawing. My code looks like this:

    var circle:Sprite;
    circle = new Sprite(); 
    circle.graphics.beginGradientFill(GradientType.LINEAR,[0xFF0000,0x0000FF],[1,.4],[200,255]);
    
    circle.graphics.drawCircle(100,300,50);      // THIS WORKS - MAKES A CIRCLE WITH GRADIENT FILL
    
    circle.graphics.drawEllipse(100,300,100,100);      //THIS DOESN'T WORK - ELLIPSE HAS ONE COLOR FILL, NO GRADIENT
    
    circle.graphics.endFill();
                        
    var regularObject:UIComponent = new UIComponent();
    regularObject.addChild(circle);
    Application.application.addChild(regularObject);
    

    I'd appreciate any help. Thanks in advance.

    It does not work. move your ellipse to 0, 0

    circle.graphics.drawEllipse(0,0,100,100);
    

    I'm not very good with the understanding of gradients but it's like the gradient acts as a mask over the scene and if you draw the ellipse has a solid uniform color

  • Need help with Macbook

    Hello, I recently bought a Macbook from a friend and since I got the Mac it's very very slow at doing things like browsing the internet using Safari, it takes forever to load, web pages and all sorts of things that I'd like to get help with this problem maybe a few recommendations and also on how to speed up... If you need to care about Macbook, I can give these thx.

    To sell or transfer ownership of a Mac, even to a member of your family, you must follow these instructions. So far, you will have continuous problems.

    Refer to what to do before you sell or give away your Mac

    1. If you have enabled FileVault, disable it in system preferences > Security and privacy.
    2. "Remove" your iTunes account. Ditto for Audible if you have one.
    3. System Preferences > iCloud > deselect 'Back to My Mac' and 'find my Mac '.
    4. Disconnect from iCloud. Select "Delete from Mac" when it appears.

    Next: delete all of your personal information by erasing the internal storage of the Mac completely.

    1. If your Mac comes with a grey system installation DVD, start up your Mac with this disc in the optical drive, all holding the key c to boot from it instead of its internal volume, which must be erased before selling.
      • Apple stopped Macs shipment requiring these discs in August 2011.
    2. If your Mac does not comes with disks, boot OS X Internet Recovery:
      • using three fingers press on and hold the following keys: (command), optionand R.
      • With a fourth finger, press the power button to turn on the Mac.
      • Keep the other three fingers here where they are until you see the icon "spinning globe.
      • This method force the Mac to download BONES initially installed from Apple servers, that won't require not an Apple ID install.
    3. Remove any password Open Firmware, if you created a: select utility password firmware in the Utilities menu and remove.
    4. Select disk utility from the utilities menu.
    5. Delete all partitions that can be created.
    6. Select the icon for the hard drive to the Mac, and then select the tab "delete".
    7. Click on the 'Security Options' button and erase the drive.
      • More "robustly" you erase the disc, the longer it will.
      • The fastest method is sufficient, since all but the techniques more expensive and equipment will be able to recover data deleted safely.
    8. When he finishes, quit disk utility.
    9. In the utility menu, select Install Mac OS X .
      • An identifier Apple won't be necessary. If a prompt for an Apple ID, return to step 5.
      • Do not create user accounts.
    10. When he finishes, shut down the computer.
    11. If you want to install the bundled apps that have been included with your Mac, restart using your DVD Applications if it was included and install the bundled apps.
      • Apps, delivered with the new Macs sold without disks cannot be transferred. His new owner must buy them from the Mac App Store with its own Apple ID.

    If the Mac is sold to someone outside the family, consider the following additional information:

    1. System provided with your Mac installation DVD must stay with him forever and be included in the sale.
    2. Consider including your AppleCare certificate if you bought it, documents printed, same box if you have.
      • AppleCare remains with the equipment and can be transferred.
    3. Run an invoice indicating the serial number of the Mac.
    4. Once is no longer in your possession, remove the Mac of your devices in my support profile.

  • How to get help with Add ons and extensions that stop working

    I have saved passwords and it has stopped working. It's so hard to get help with Moxilla

    rosemarybales said

    I still don't know why the extension button passwords saved with the key icon has stopped working.

    This button displays the saved passwords in Firefox's built-in password manager, is no separate passwords that record you in Dashlane. Can you save passwords in both places? (Well, I guess you do.)

    I have a guess on why it has stopped working. Firefox 40 has some changes to how extensions can work with the user interface, so quite a few extensions that have been more than one year must be updated for Firefox 40. It has been updated on January 10, 2012.

    Anyway, the way of 'long' to display the passwords saved in Firefox is through the Options page, the Security Panel, the saved passwords button.
