I need to make a transparent text layer

It's amazing - I want to do should be a piece of cake, but I don't see how. I am designing a cover of Blu - Ray and wanted my text in black on a blue background. The blue background came from matching the color of the sky in which a photograph is on the cover and adding a layer of blue. The background color of my text layer remains stubbornly white and I can't get the blue background to be seen.

There is probably an easier way - like filling the text layer with the color took a blue color - but I can't find how to do that either.

Will I be stupid or something that should be ridiculously simple is really that complicated? The web seems to be of little use here.

Cheers and beers,

Paddy Ryan

I. from the layer of text of zero problem - filling with selected blue - solved.

Thank you for yor help.

  • How to make a transparent text so as to keep the whiteness

    This can be very simple, but have failed to do it again. Have tried all the effect different merger on the text layer, but so that it makes the text more transparent it becomes too dark, how to avoid this? And while Im at it, it is the final effect of I'm looking for with the whole project.

    If anyone knows which fonts and effects used would be great.

    Well, that's the whole issue of blend modes - they mix the two values in pixels. The only way to change the behavior would be to also change the bottom layer. In your case, several copies of the text tinted different colors and where the modes in different opacities of merger should do the trick. Sometimes there is no one-click solution to achieve a specific look.

  • Make a transparent text effects without caches

    Hi, I have a transparent text where you could see the video in the text.  I use several videos that I placed and already edited in Premiere Pro CS6, and I would like to import a video file with the transparent text After Effects into Premiere Pro.  I want to use AF instead of title in PP machine because the text extends from 4000% and I can't do a text that great in Premiere Pro.  All advice is appreciated.

  • Transparent text - example of joint

    Usually, to make my transparent text, I would reduce the opacity so that you can see the object directly below.  However, I have a problem how to make a graph of work whereby there is a picture on the background, a color box on top that and, finally, the text on top of that.  The problem is transparency watch only through the layer immediately below and not the bottom image.  It is hard to describe so I have attached an example.

    As you can see in the example, there is a yellow box under the text (no doubt), but the text is transparent so that you can see the image behind.  Any ideas?  Can't find in aid of Illustrator.

    Thank you.

    You're welcome, Mark. Please bring in all cases.

  • Make the text layer transparent logo

    Hello

    I want to create a logo with the text layer and the background transparent (so that both are found with the gray and white square)

    I have it done before, but when I now create the circle logo, create the text, then use magic want to select the text you want to delete and make them transparent, he said: I can't edit without pixelation of the image.

    Once I did I use the magic wand to try to make it transparent, it removes the text and watch only the circle.

    Can someone give me a step by step guide?

    The attached picture is the effect I want to create with transparent lettering.

    Thank you in advance!

    Rphotoshop_problem.png

    You get the error because you are trying to remove pixels from your text layer.

    When you have the choice of characters, activate the layer with the circle, then click on remove. (Hide your text layer when finished)

    BTW better (than the magic wand) to select the text is in control, click on the thumbnail for the text layer.

    Hello

    Default Outter Glow has the screen as it has blend mode. on a white background, you need to change to a different mix (normal color, more dark, multiply, or whatever you prefer, experience with some doubt)

    I suggest leaving the white background on all tweaking and if you need output, turn off the white layer before saving transparent

    And why you even do it in PS? What you wrote means that you need something big which will be made using cutting of vinyl or other techniques of signage and it requires to work with vectors, which means you use Illustrator, not Photoshop.

  • Fusion of text and to make it transparent - how do we please?

    Hi all

    It's probably pretty simple but the answer escapes me. What I want to do is to create a rectangle color without a border (what I can do!), then drag text top and cut the text so it leaves the original rectangle with transparent text if you know what I mean.

    I can easily do this in PS with the magic lasso, but of course I lose quality when re-importing in I.

    If anyone can shed some light it would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you in anticipation

    Dave

    In turn, using the option less prominent in the Pathfinder palette you get the desired result.

    Select your vectorization of text and the rectangle.

    Select the option less prominent in the Pathfinder palette.

    BAM! Here is your result.

    All solutions are all very good. Much help here!

    See you soon,.

  • I use an iMac with El Capitan and Photoshop CS6. I'm trying to add a shadow to a text on a picture. I followed the instructions to double the text layer but not dropshadow dialog box appears and I can't. Where would it be?

    Double click on the text on the right side of the display panel does not cause a dialog box open. I just need to know where the dialog box is so I can add the drop shadow

    Please make sure that you double-click on the text layer in the layer panel not the name of the layer. With the text, it can be difficult if the name is too long. You can also right-click on the text layer in the Panel and bring up the contextual menu and select 'blending Options '.
