I'm trying to make a rounded-corner box with a gradient-style border. Obviously, the straight sides of the box are easy to create the effect for, but not so the rounded-corners.
How to I get the gradient to follow the curve - to blend from the curved edge - rather than just giving me a linear gradient as if I was doing it from a rectangular corner?
I tried some other gradient types, there didn't seem to be anything that did the trick.
I'll try to attach a quick test file, if it lets me, to illustrate what I'm talking about. Note how the gradient cuts out diagonally across the rounded corner rather than curving and following the corner around.
Or is there a different way to create this kind of border?
I have a rounded corner rectangle in a template that I am working on..I would like to extend the vertically but keep the rounded edge dimensions the same as I extend vertically.
Right now I extend the rectangle but the edges also extend.
First I pick out a foreground color, then a bg color. Now there is already a nice gradient in the blend box below the toolbox. Is there any way I can just save that? It's all I really need but in a larger size. I could just take a screen shot of it and then edit that with Gimp, but it seems like there must be a way of doing that within gimp.
I have an image that I created with rounded corners that sits on a transparent background. But when I save it the picture (jpeg) always comes out a rectangle without rounded corners (with a white background). How can I save it with rounded corners?
Modelling a solid in AutoCAD 2008, I am a " good enough " user of AutoCAD in 2D ( at least for what I need ) but almost a beginner at 3D modelling.
I can't get a cube corner rounded. The portion of the corner that is to be subtracted from the box is defined by three arcs, each one at a different face, you can see more clearly what I mean if you see the attached file:
Firstly, I'm using Illustrator CS6. I'd like to round a specific corner of a shape (a rectangle to be specific). I've seen in other posts that the CornerEffects.jsx script should work. But every time I select my rectangle, go to File > Scripts > CornerEffects.jsx I get this pop-up.
Using Inkscape, I can easily create an hexagon with rounded courners. The result in below in yellow (the right hexagon). It's possible to see that not only the corners are rounded, but the entire shape is (the lines around the hexagon aren't completely straight). I am now trying to acheive the same effect with Illustrator CS6, but I can't find out how. The closest I got is the white hexagon below (on the left). The corners are rounded but the lines are straight.
How can I create an hexagon identical to the one in yellow above with Illustrator?
I have Photoshop elements 2.0 for mac and have read your "Making round corner rectangles in Photoshop" I think that Elements must not have the this option. I'm missing the paths (Create Work Paths Tool) (Vector Shape tool) Everytime I use the "rounded Corners Rectangle tool" It makes rounded corners but it does it in reverse.
I takes away the middle of my photos instead of the outside of the photos. I can't seem to reverse this or invert it. I tried clicking in invert and nothing happens. It just always takes away the center of the photo. What can I do???
I'm working in Illustrator CS3. Recently the program has begun to do something I have never notice before. If I use the round corner's filter: Filter>Stylize>Round Cornors then every box I create after using it has rounded corners that I cannot get rid of. Things drawn with the pen tool also have rounded corners I cannot get rid of. The only way to stop the problem seems to be to open a new document and then the tools are set back to their default without automatically rounding corners.
Who do I use the rounded corners filter on a single object at a time and not get to automatically be applied to all subsequent objects created.
Is it possible to find the value of the corner radius of the rounded corners for a rectangle that was created with the Rounded Rectangle Tool. This if for CS4.
All the default arrowheads are sharp corners. I need to make an arrowhead that looks sort of like Arial Rounded, where the arrowhead itself is rounded at the point and on the ends.
I am new to the forum, I am creating an image of combined 2 images with the middle overlapping with each other. I was hoping to blend the 2 images in the middle very much like this site here: [URL]....
If I copy/paste a gradient filled object between two Illustrator CS6 documents, the gradient becomes a blend. This doesn't happen however if just drag the object from one open document to another.
Is there a way to correct this copy/paste behaviour?
I want to take a photograph and have it go from transparent to solid opacity. I believe the gradient tool can do that (maybe) but I don't want any color, just have the transparent blend to solid.
I'm trying to blend a couple of images together using the gradient tool.
I moved one image to the other using the move tool, I then added Layer Mask (in the layers palette), i then got my gradient tool and selected black,white.....I used the gradient tool on the left side of the image and it blended beautifully.
So, now that the left side is blended nicely, I attempt to blend the right side. The right side blends very nice.....but my left side went back to where it was originally.
I have an arc shape that I'm trying to fill with a gradient-type blend where it will be 0% spot on the lower left side gradually going around to 100% spot on the lower right side. The example I have attached shows the shape on the left with a conical fountain just to give an idea of something close, but it won't actually work for my shape. I also attached a cdr X5 file which contains a blend I was working on, but can't seem to get it to work (that is the shape on the right). I tried cutting it in half which works, but I still can't get it.
I am creating a shape that looks like a pill a rectangle with two circles on the ends, if you will. But it's all one shape. I want a gradient or blend (what exactly is the differnce?) that has a white middle and dark gray edges. The white goes along the pill horizontally but the dark gray is above and below this white "line" but the rounded edges of the pill shape are the dark gray. I'm using CS6.
I am trying to acheive the same angle gradient effect that can be done in Photoshop but in Illustrator. The actual thing I want to be able to create as a vector is the graphic attached...
Can this be done by somehow using the blend tool and replacing the spline with a circle?
I have a banner heading that is more or less outlined text. I want to give all the corners a rounded corner and at the moment would just do it all by hand, one at a time. So I want to go from a to b:
But I would like to find an easy way to make all corners the same diameter regardless of the angle too.
I am trying to create a runded border to make signs like the 'Give Way' sign but I don't know where to start with it, I want to make a four sided sign and not three, which I guess will make it a lot easier, how to make a three sided one.
I've created a panel using the rounded rectangle method.
My panel is transparent on the background and I don't like how the edges of it are shown (too rough). I want to add semi transparent pixels after them (a kind of manual anti-aliasing)
I've created a 1px border rounded rectangle, (image attached) however, the corners sems jagged and flat. Is there a way to create more smoothed rounded corners?
I need to know how to create a border with just the top 2 corners rounded? I saw a video tutorial, but the instructions were not clear at all, and it also paid no attention to details like how to make the the corners the exact same size. I want to use it for my company's marketing emails, so the top 2 corners would be rounded while the bottom will align with my email page
I need to take a logo and blend it in with another picture. I also want the picture of leaves to drape a little over the letters of the logo. How do I do this? I can't figure out how to crop or how to add a 2nd picture to my screen.
