How to reduce (or eliminate) the part of 'White' in a gradient of two colors?

I spent the delay time trying to take what I call the "degraded Monster", that is, the concept of the gradients did not come across that easily over me.

Fast forward to this morning. I created a simple two color gradient by using the option new shade of gradient in the Swatch in Adobe InDesign CS5 Panel.

My left color is red (CMYK 0, 100, 100, 25) and the right stop my color is dark red (CMYK, 15, 100, 100, 70)

If I understand the concept of a gradient, the inside of any object (fill) that I have swatch using a particular gradient should mix color of window to the other, with in-between transitional colors.

If I select the linear gradient, the transition runs according to a single linear axis from one point to another. If I select the radial gradient, the transition runs from the center of the object to the outside. I can reverse a linear and radial gradient by simply clicking on "Reverse" in the Panel gradient color.

Now to my question.

When I apply the gradient above, what I should see the selected object is filled with the applied gradient, with - in the name of the argument - #1 left and stop-color #2 in the right color stop. I don't see this effect, however.

Instead, what I see, it's the stop-color #1 (dark red) on the left and the red color washed out (white) on the right. I want to see on the right is the stop-color #2. Not a faded version of it (where the 'white').

In simpler terms, why I see a stop white-faded color at all? And how can I rid my gradient of this effect?

The image above shows my gradient. Notice the 'white' faded part on the left; It should be red, not faded red. Dark red on the right is fine.

This image comes from a MS Word document; I would like to than the gradient look: dark red on one side, red (or red) on the other. No discoloration.

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance.

No worries, Pat.

A series of screenshots...

Simply select the rectangle. Use the gradient tool to draw a gradient from one end to the other. Probably is white to black as below.

Open the gradient panel. Right-click on a limit. Add to the color chart.

I add gradients to the nuances that make it easy to put to day/change.

Double-click the new grade. You get the following dialog box:

Change in CMYK.

Change a limit switch.

Change the other:

I didn't rename it, but I do it in practice.

Take care, Mike

  • Text looks pixelated on 728 x 90 and banner 300 x 250 & how to reduce work for the web

    Hello

    I need to make high resolution several web banners in sizes mentioned in the title.  I have to include the text in small characters in these... This isn't an option.

    Can anyone help with a technique that will keep the readable small text?  I tried anti-aliasing and rendering vectors in artificial intelligence.

    In addition, I read in several places that when you make the web banners, many people do double or even quadruple the size of the final and then to reduce them.  So I conceived in 1456 x 90 and 300 x 250, but when I've scaled down in "Save for Web (legacy)" it seems not make difference to the text.  I could do this technical wrong.  Can someone advise step by step how this is done?

    I would like to have only clear and useful answers. Please do not respond with "Further research"... is not helpful advice and I studied intensively.

    It's very small... There must be by the request of the customer.  :/

    I actually found a post about it and it's super useful. I tried strong anti-aliasing and that helped a little bit, but downsampling "bicubic" was the key!  Here is the message: How to achieve a clear text for web use? MacRumors Forums

    I think that it would certainly help to make the text a little bigger, but it seemed to work pretty well!

    You can disable cookies by using the node property and ownership "Disabled". You can create a tab control and disable the entire tab control that will disable all inside of it.

    To do this programmatically, set up your code with a structure of the event and create an event when the user changes the value of a button or click the mouse.

  • Reduce or eliminate the pause at the end of the TTS

    I use TTS to convert notes Cap 6. It seems that there is just less than one second pause or silence at the end of the audio generated without worrying if I finish notes with no signs of punctuation or a comma or a period. I have a few TTS that spans multiple slides, so I want to end this break to be considerably reduced. I could edit audio for each slide, but that seems like a lot of extra work. Is there a setting somewhere to fix this? I use MS David as the agent of the word, if that matters.

    Here you can see the end pause of several slides:

    Sorry, but that use another agent of speech or just edit the silence on each clip.  That's all.

  • Audio help! How to get out of the "umms" in an interview

    Hi all


    As you know, I give you Karma points again so I hope that all my staff have been going to a lot of good things. I'm publishing an interview I did and there are a number of "umms" as in (I was walking on the street and 'um', I decided to go to the "shop um" ect - you get my point) in the audio and I was wondering if anyone has an idea on how to minimize this without the audio off completely for a second or two?

    Any help would be GREAT!

    Marketsurfer!

    You could get lucky, if there is not a lot of discernible lip movement in the "em um", and be able to just cut that particular sound signal. I locate some "Audio ambient" and replace those set out to offend, you have no silence when you cut out. If you are nearby, and there are obvious lip movement, then there is not much else, that can be done.

    Good luck
