Illustrator :: Outer Glow Effects Won't Render
Sep 9, 2013
I applied an outer glow to my objects in illustrator but it just won't display.
I've hit some kind of hotkey that turns raster effects off or something, but I dont even know where to start looking. I've used glows in the past and its always a bit wonky but now it just wont do anything.
I've been using spot colors, but have tried it without to no effect, and I run windows 8. I want to apply it to the compound shape hammer time, I thought maybe it was not working because of the compound shape so I tried getting rid of my inside shapes, but its not really changing.
I did just notice that there is a weird haze around the top hammer time on this image, but ONLY if you turn your head and look at the monitor from a strange angle can you really see it. So it might just be that I screwed up my glow settings here.
I'm trying to get the glow to be very strong for about half an inch and the fade out.

I am using Illustrator CS5. I am trying to put an outer glow on text that I have done the 'create outlines' to. My settings are Normal color is white opacity is 90% and blur is 10mm. I hit OK and nothing shows up. If I change the color I use then I get the glow. The thing is I need the white glow. Can I not use white or am I missing something else?

Since upgrading the AI CC (17.0.0), when applying an outer glow effect to objects, the effect sometimes expands its appearance involuntarily after saving and closing the file. The outcome is similar to selecting "expand appearance" from the Object menu.
When the saved file is reopened, the outer glow effect has become is its own object, grouped with the original shape. You can no longer adjust the effect in the Appearance panel.

I just need to be able to have the glow or shadow around the object, but no fill or stroke at all.

I want to put an outer glow round the policeman. I've been trying but I must be missing one important step. I can get a glow or shadow rounf the whole square frame ...... but I want it just around the figure.
I've tried uploading the image here .... but it keeps tellin me that my photo (which is only 45kb) and is called McFadden.jpg is not a valid file type. The photo is a plain white background with an image cut out of a policeman on it. I want to put the glow around the policeman.

I'm trying to make a thin outline around my text. I read that outer glow is the feature to use but I cant seem to make it work. Is outer glow the way to make outlines or is there a different way?

I want is to be able to Add some text to this logo.."CHAT!" at the end of SwankPets and add an outer glow to this text. However, the "layer style" option is always grayed out. I tried doing it on a separte file and then copy and pasting, but the Paste option gets grayed out too!

I'm trying to make a neat planet image for some hobby stuff I'm working on. I have an image (2048x1024) as a texture (from the program Fractal Terrains). I can render it into 3D using Shape3D (AWESOME plugin, btw).
Now I'm trying to add the inner and outer glow on the planet. I guess I'm not well enough versed in PDN to follow it exactly... my results aren't getting me where I want to be (yet, I know it works because others are praising the author).
Anyhow, here's the link to the original Glow tutorial. Here's an example of the type of effect I'm looking for -- the purplish halo around the planet.

I'm trying to implement some effects in C++ for my user interface controls. I've figured out that Photoshop Layer Styles uses an anti-aliased form of the Euclidean Distance Transform for "Precise" techniques (Inner Glow and Outer Glow).
But what is the method used for the "Softer" technique for Outer Glow and Inner Glow? It seems this is also used for the "Smooth" technique when computing the height map for Bevel and Emboss.

I am in the process of creating a flier and I am running into a problem with my type. In my head line I am attempting to use an outter glow but when I do I get a choppy distortion on my letters. It isn't all that aparent when I look at it in photoshop but when I export it to a pdf you can tell and it is really obvious when I print it. There has be no noise added to any of the effects applied to the type. In fact the only other effect applied to the type is a gradient overlay.
I am using photoshop cs6 on a mac running 10.6.8

I used an outer glow layer style to make a curvy gradient but it fades towards the edges of the canvas. Is there any way to get rid of the fade short of making the style larger than I need and then cropping it, or is there a better way to make a gradient like this?

What I mean by "Holy Grail" is that intense outer glow of crosses in religious illustrations but that looks natural in photographs. I am looking for technique, filter or third party plug in.
I have product photos to create this type of outer glow but I also want it to look natural.
I am looking for a fast, easy and adjustable way to do this -- if at all possible.

I'm created a photo of an alien boy being beamed down to someone's house in a cone of bright white light from a flying saucer, and I tried to use the "layer style" to create the glowing light effect in this cone of bright light - but somehow I'm not getting the "glow" effect that I got before. I'm stumped as to what I'm doing wrong/not doing right to produce the glow effect. In other words, the outer/inner glow effect no longer works. Can anyone please help me?

Ok first of all explanation this Is a photo I took of a friend his favourite movie is the matrix (I know dated now) he has an online tag of Gadg3t man all though you will not see it in this pic it is only 10% of the size all of his body is actually like a circuit board which I spent way to much time on luckily I managed to save a jpeg but not the psd file before our bilding power went out I want to add a white inner glow to every little character in the matrix letters not the Gadg3tman part but all those tiny little letters without doing the whole picture again and without doing it all manually with a paint brush I have tried to do a preset pattern and it just looks worse of a way to achieve this bearing in mind I dont have the layers and I cant really add another layer with glow effects it needs to be subtle and constrained within the tiny characters or am I going to have to redo the whole pic again

1. find the attached “Rays on Oval.png” file. (Tried attaching .cdr file but the File Size is 400KB.)
2. I would like to Repeat / Duplicate that Black Color on Outer Path of Oval Shape. (Like shown in the Yellow versus Black. The Yellow is a Circle and the Black is from Star Tool)
3. I think the Best Bet would be to Link the Rays to the Outer Path of Oval Shape.
4. I need the Rays and Oval as 2 Different Objects so that I could Change the Color Scheme.

There seems not to be that option. I have a AE file that is 4480x192 and needs to stay this size! I have tried many converters, but they seem to diminish the quality and change the size. The program this file will be put into ONLY accepts .avi.

I have been working on an animation project in AE and every time I click the Add to Render Queue option it does nothing. I have tried to export it as well, to see if it would render or export and it doesn't do anything. The only thing I can do is Save Frame As. I have been working on an animation previously and was able to Add to Render Queue to render out my animation, it has only been since I added some Automated UI Scripts for pre-animated kinetic typography and for line creation that it has not allowed me to render out anything. I have checked that the scripts are in the correct Script UI folder and they are and I have tried a few other things and nothing is working, .the only thing I can think it may be is my RAM is full or there's an issue with my render settings.

I got a simple comp in after effects. Its just some text and a picture noe videos. But i do got some effects, on the text and the picture im using :
Twitch in the twitch effect manuel , i am using "Bad disortion" And im using the wiggler, in the mid of the clip.
On the text i am also using twitch. I suppose is the same , which effect it is on the text. Cause it just a effect for a really short time.
So the whole project movie its about 48 sec long. But when i render it to mov , it just renders 3 second. So i can only watch 3 seconds of my mov.

Macbook pro Retina 15.
Processor : 2,3 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory : 8GB 1600Mhz DDR3
Graphics : Nvidia GeForce GT650M 1024mb
