How to create a transparent box with only the colored border visible

I'm trying to highlight something on a piece of data and I just have a simple box that describes the area of content that I am highlighting, but obviously the viewer must see through the content box.

Cannot find anything on the elements to see how it's done.

Thank you

Doug

If you want more control you can use the Rectangle tool and add a line with layer styles or lower opacity

and then you can move, resize, or change the color at any time.

Highlights:

1. draw the retangle, double click on the shape layer in the layers panel to select the color and then lower the opacity of the layer to your taste.

You can use the move tool to reposition the box or resize by clicking on one of the corner handles.

Race:

1. pull the rectangle.

2. in the effects with Layer Styles Panel, choose visibility and hide

(the color of the rectangle will be diappear)

3. go to layer > layer Style > Style settings and choose STROKE from the dialog box.

(you can choose the color and size of the line in the dialog box)

  • How to create a dialog box with a counter visible timeout?

    I have a dialog box which may arise when nobody is on the screen.  I would like to display a countdown in the dialog box that allows the operator knows that there so many seconds to make a decision before the program goes forward.  Is there a way to make the dialog box update while it is displayed?  What I have to do a sub VI or y at - it an easier way?  Any suggestions?

    To the best of my knowledge, you will not be able to change the construction in the dialog boxes to display a timer.  Maybe it's actually possible, but I doubt it's easy.

    In my opinion, you need to use a Subvi and display the front panel when it is called.  Organize the façade visually resemble the dialog box should appear with a digital indicator.  Feed the Subvi timeout value (which will allow you to decide when exit the while loop).  Use the "number of cycles (ms)" both inside and outside the while loop.  On the outside will mark the time during which the Subvi has been called.  Subtracting the two will change in time (how long the Subvi has worked in ms).  You can subtract this figure from the value of timeout and this thread to the digital indicator.  This will give you the effect of a countdown.

    If this value is less than zero, exit the while loop.  Similarly, if the operator performs certain tasks, exit the while loop.  On a side note, you can add a button to stop the countdown.  This will be useful if the operator gets to the screen with 2 seconds left.

  • BlackBerry smartphone how to create a dialog box with edit controls

    Hi guys,.

    I am trying to create a dialog box that has a couple of input fields - one is a selection list (drop-down list), and the other is a text box. I know the custom dialog boxes can be created, but I'm not sure that it is possible to add several input fields. Is this correct?

    In this case, what alternatives can I?

    My main goal is to have a sort of modal popup / dialog box that can be used on different platforms to BB, without having to manually set the Properties screen for each layout.

    Thanks in advance.

    OK, I was able to find a solution with the help of a subclass of the screen. I would like to know if there is a better sense, though. If anyone knows, please post a reply.

    But I admin that it's too complex for my short knowledge get the appropriate result. Can you show me how I can split dialog box, add second bottom and make my code to look the same as this example please?

    I think that you can accomplish what you want by wrapping your 'vbox' VBox in an another VBox... Let's call it outerVBox. In outerVBox, you put a node ImageView and 'vbox'. To create the node ImageView (for example):

    Image bkgrdImage = new Image(getClass().getResourceAsStream("resources/my_pic.jpg"));
    ImageView bkgrdImageView = new ImageView(bkgrdImage);
    

    And then add nodes to outerVBox:

    outerVBox.getChildren().addAll(bkgrdImageView, vbox);
    

    (And of course to create the scene instance using outerVBox instead of "vbox.")

  • How to convert Integer to ASCII with only the necessary components?

    So the question I have is that converting an integer to a string using type cast. It gives me the string as ASCII, but unfortunately the cast type function keeps all unused space resulting in extra characters in my channel. I tried to change the entire representation to byte, but I quickly realized that I wouldn't be able to have multiple characters. I need a way to remove the extra characters, but if the integer is high enough to do another. It's like this byte array:

    0 0 0 24 0 6 127 254

    Think of it as a basic 256 system I want to convert to count. I don't want all those zeros, just as I would not as for example the 00000433 in base 10, but I want to have the possibility to go for example in 1433 when the integer is quite high.

    Pictures of my results of front panel and block diagram are attached.

    I will neglect the negative values for the moment.

    If you want a good backup program that backups image, I recommend Acronis True Image 2010:http://www.acronis.com/homecomputing/products/trueimage/.  It offers a free trial, so you can test and if you want it's only about $30 for the original version.  A lot of people I know this program and use it instead of Vista even in versions of Vista that offers imagery as this program does a better job.  Of course you also need a place to put the backup (which will take a lot of space), so also consider.  The best choice would be a USB external hard drive at least as large as the readers you want to back up (not only the data on them, but the entire available disk space, so you miss when you add more information about the disks).

    You cannot use IMGBURN do - it can't do anything like that.  It must be the imagery of backup software.

  • How to create a bounding box in Photoshop CS6?

    Hello, group.

    The other day, I saw an Adobe web page that showed a picture whose part was a sheet inside. The sheet was locked in a bounding box. However, it seems unlikely that the person working on this image needed (where this picture was concerned) for the text tool. If you need to place a block of type within a bounding box, you simply select the text tool and drag. This creates a bounding box.

    What of those occasions when no text is at issue, but simply a physical object in the picture? How to create a bounding box for this?

    Thank you for all the helpful tips.

    S.G.

    You can also use the move tool, with "Show transform controls" checked in the options.

  • How to create a fuzzy circle of which the text is transparent

    Hello

    Relatively new to the PS and Fireworks used for years. I've seen the effect often and I was wondering how to create myself. After a lot of time that I can't get my head around it.

    Does anyone know how to create a circle bluffed with the text when the text is transparent it please? (like the picture below)

    I have a slider on a website with a number of images where I add this fuzzy circle so that any image behind can be seen.

    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    blur circle clear text.JPG

    Yes, this is why you need the mask to the group. It masks the blurry image as well as white. I have your layer 1 copy completely filled with white. To make the layer mask, you can do it several ways. To make one with the form you all ready in layer 1 copy, ctrl-click on the layer icon to make a selection (you can also make a new selection using the Oval Marquee tool). Select the group, and then click the layer at the bottom of the Layer palette. You can also use the shape tool and create a path (you want a path and not a form or pixel layer). Once the path is created and active (still selected), select the group, but this time hold down ctrl/cmd key when you click on the mask icon. This will make a vector mask, which is easier to change and move later.

  • How is it when I try to open one of my favorte often visited Web sites I get a blank page with only the word 'false' in the upper left?

    How is it when I try to open one of my favorte often visited Web sites I get a blank page with only the word 'false' in the upper left?

    This just started happening the last two days.  I tried to add the url to my list to activate in Internet Options, also to accept the list for windows firewall. I rebooted and restored.

    It is annoying when I can't access Web sites on my PC.  There is no control parenting, nor is it a reason to be since I'm 57 years old, single, live alone and have no children, and not to mention that this isn't a single adult site. This is an auction site.  The same thing happens on a site of sports too.

    Hello

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Communities.

    I understand how it could be frustrating when things do not work as expected. Please, I beg you, don't worry I'll try my best to resolve the issue.

    1. what operating system is installed on the computer?

    2. what version of Internet Explore do you use?

    3 have there been recent changes to the computer before the show?

    Please go ahead and follow the steps mentioned and later a update on the State of the question.

    Method 1: Start Internet explorer with the mode without modules and check.

    Click Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, and click Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).

    If the problem does not persist in Internet Explorer (No Add-ons), then it is one of the Add-ons at the origin of this problem. Please follow the steps below to locate the problem the weak module:

    a. restart IE normally.

    b. click on tools.

    c. click on Manage Add-ons.

    d. disable add-ons by clicking on them one at a time to highlight and then click Disable.

    e. reactivate modules one by one and check with what add-on, you get this error message.

    f. turn off the add-on at the origin of the problem.

    (For Windows Vista)

    Method 2: How to optimize Internet Explorer:

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936213/no

    Important: Reset Internet Explorer to its default configuration. This step will disable also any add-ons, plug-ins or toolbars that are installed. Although this solution is fast, it also means that, if you want to use one of these modules in the future, they must be reinstalled.

    Follow these recommended steps and after if you still experience the problem.
