Illustrator :: How To Create A Set Of Framed Transparent Windows
Feb 19, 2013
I want to create a set of framed windows that are transparent, so that I can place any image below the frame in the stacking order, and the image will show through the windows.
If it worked, the image below would show the trees though the five windows instead of the five white rounded rectangles, but the grey gradiant and the text would remain.
I thought masking could do it, but Masking crops the image to the window, but it also removes the grey gradiant frame, andI can't get masking to work with more than on window, even if I group the five windows.

What I'm trying to do is give the blue box a transparent stroke that will "cut through" the red boxes and show the background underneath, whatever that may be ...white, another color, or a photo.
I can easily achieve this when I give it a white stroke. It'll look like this:
When I change to a background color other than white or even a photo however, I end up with this problem:
How do I make it so that I have a transparent border (not white) around the blue box? Which effectively cuts a "transparent stroke" (space) between the parts where the blue and red boxes intersect?

I would like to create a vector icon with a transparent shape inside it, like in this image below:
So everything should be transparent except of course the dark grey area...
Below is a link to my AI file if you want it:

I'm creating text that will be printed on a deep gray to black tshirt.
I created text, added an offset path to it with a gradient, and a deep gray color fill on top, achieving the gradient stroke. However, I'm not exactly sure what color the shirt itself will be, other than deep gray to black. And I didn't want the deep gray/black fill in my text to appear and look awkward on the shirt. Unless that is something I shouldn't be considered about.
To be safe, how would you create transparent text with a gradient stroke? I'm using Illustrator CS5.

I am trying to use Pathfinder>Minus front to create transparent rays over text outlines, but am having trouble. how it should appear: URL.. It's nearly exactly how I'd like it to look but i just want it so that when I put the graphic on an image the rays don't show up as white but are instead transparent.

As I've done with so many other actions before, I am using Insert Menu Item. But when I choose Window>Arrange>Tile, it doesn't fill in that item. I've tried typing "tile" in the Insert Menu Item dialog, and clicking Find, but that results in Effect> Texture> Mosaic Tiles. Which is not the item I want
Why can't I choose Window>Arrange> Tile? Or, is there a workaround?

I need to strip my current image of its background color so that the background color on my website goes thru my image. In other words I need a transparent background for my image.
I have create a new layer that is transparent, but the background color on my website does not go thru it. The background color of this image appears to be grayish not transparent.

I am attempting to follow her as if I am seeing thru a knot hole.I have the video of her on overlay track 1 and the fence/knot hole on overlay 2. How do I track her in the middle of the knot hole? Can the overlay tracks somehow be key-framed?

I would like to make a aluminum framed panel template that I can enter in the height and width dimensions and then save the panel assembly into it's own unique part#. Right now, when I design enclosure, I will have multiple sizes of framed panel and I typically have to manually change the length and width dimensions for the individual extrusion members, then change the panel size manually. I re-name the new extrusions and panels to avoid file name conflicts. Is there a way to simplify the process?
Like I said before, I will have multiple "section"(SEC) assemblies in each main assembly file.
I attached a zip file with my aluminum framed panel assembly.

This is really a Windows question, but I don't know anything about Windows, while I do use AutoCAD.
With the new Windows 7, the AutoCAD header is transparent.
When other programs are behind AutoCAD, their light colored headers make it impossible to see the full path of my drawing files.
I can't just look and see which drawing file I am in.
I have to move a mouse and click somewhere.
Is there any way to make the headers opaque?

I know how to use the "I" intelligent scissors tool and paste into a window with a transparent background.
But I saw a NASA video where this very intricate tree with branches and no leaves was made into a PNG perfect. Then they had the stars moving behind it. They didn't use a scissors tool. There was too much detail.

I recently moved from CS2 to CS4 and here's another basic task I can't do. I could say lots of negative things, instead, just the basics. I have a PSD file with a background layer in one color and a text layer with text in another color. All I want to do is create a GIF which uses the background color for transparency but no matter what I try I only get the background color. This is really discouraging.

To explain this as easy as possible. I want to achieve the following.
Create a shape.Create a letter via a type layer.Creating a clipping mask of the type layer so it appears inside the shape.Make the text layer a transparent shape. So regardless of the background I put it on the letter will always appear as if it is a cut out of the shape.
I want to do all of the above while keeping the shape and the text layer vector objects. I do not know Adobe Illustrator, so this is my only route.

I need to be able to create text so that the text is transparent and it reveals a collage of photos underneath. The box AROUND the text needs to remain white....so that ONLY the text is transparent. The effect would be that the text would appear to be cut out of the photos behind it.
So in other words, I need to end up with a big white box that has text on top of it. Then the text in that box is transparent and shows photos underneath both layers (including the white)

I've been looking at some tutorials lately and some of them say to create a "transparent layer." Is this a special setting for the layer or does this mean that I can just create a layer and set the opacity down a little bit?

I've been working on a traditional/digital painting, and in my earlier ignorance about computer art programs, I accidentally left a background on it that I would dearly love to remove. Here is the partially-finished painting

Much of the digital work was done in PSE. Is there any way to remove that white background using Xara?

I want the Intro screen in a Slideshow to contain some background or introductory text. The Intro screen may be customized by editing the identity plate, but only to provide text on one line - not very useful. The Intro screen consists of the Identity Plate against the background created jointly with the Backdrop controls.
So, I thought this would be easily solved by creating a 'photo' in PS, with the text I require on a transparent background. Then import as another slide. Easy Peasy.
No, not quite, as Saving As... in PS as JPG does not work, TIF offers to save transparency but LR does not honour the promise. I tried GIF, but LR doesn't even 'see' GIFs.
I am sure that Adobe, in the 4.1-th generation of LR, will not have made this impossible....
Platform>> Lightroom 4.1, Photoshop CS5 v12, Windows 7/64 Pro

I am using Photoshop 8.0. I have a JPEG file of our organization logo. The actual logo is round, but is surrounded by white. I want to make the white part transparent so I can place the logo on other graphics and not have anything but the round part of the logo showing. How can I do that?

I have this icon and I'd like to use it on a website but with interchangeable colors.So, what I'd like to do is create a png file with solid colors simulating the background.And, where the actual icon colors are, use transparency. That way I can specify any color I want in the background and it will filter through!
how I could extract the different alpha transparency information to make the result similar to the pic shown above.I know it's possible as I've followed some tuts but the result isn't exactly the same.

I am wanting to create a Transparent Background for a search button in respect to a form.... I guess one would suggest it's not really a Background since it looks kinda like a sheath covering the default search button that come with all forms..
I have the Adobe Master Suite CS5, so I may have the right tools. I am not much of a Graphics Designers, but I will try. Below is an example of what I am wanting to do, but this Background is black #000000;
I know its small, but it's an example I had found.... I borrowed it as a reference.

creating a signature only seen (signed in black ink,) with a transparent background. I'm a small business owner with employee ID cards. The card background has lines and a few images that I would like the signature to go over with the background being seen as is. When I try importing or copy & paste a gif signature from one of my employee’s onto the business card, the white background still shows. I am using CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X4.

I'm tring to create an image using color from transparent to white without any background. I want to use that image in an application where the user select a color and the fadding creates a nice effect with any color (because the image has a color from transparent to white so if the user select blue then image will appear from blue to white and so on). I can't seem able to do that in Photoshop (tried with gif and png). The result gives me a white image whithout any transparancy.

I simply want to create a square, transparent, with a dark border, that will go over an image.
When I create a normal square, it is filled with white as standard. I simply want to make it transparent, and have a nice black border!

On the image of the slider of my Homepage I want a semi transparent box to appear and then after a few seconds some text will appear on the semi transparent box. The text and the semi transparent text box are on different layers. I found a tutorial on a website and followed the instructions.I created a rectangle with the sizes I need and then:
Colour > Colours to Alpha > Left Click on the pop up box that appeared > Left Click on the Colour to Alpha Colour Picker > Click on the colour I want to make transparent > Export as .png
What I got is indeed a semi transparent foreground text box to place my text on but it is too dark (Pic.01). I would like it to be light semi transparent like in Pic.02 on the right(Avada 3: The Best Yet)
How do I change the transparency level / Opacity of the foreground text box? I changed the Opacity to 50% on my second try but I did not see any visible change.
