Photoshop :: Blend Mode Options
May 9, 2012I've recently downloaded Photoshop CS6 trial version and i've tried to add a flare to a transparent background image and turn the blend option to color dodge or screen but when i do so the black bg does no go. It stays there but i have seen in many other examples video and i've even done it myself at school computers and at my home computer once but this time it just wont do it?
Example:
I open a signature for a forum i made with a transparent background.
I import a flare. It has a black bg.
Turn blend mode option to screen and the flare goes above the text but the black bg is still actually there.

Feb 20, 2014PSE11, expert mode, when select enhance/adjust levels/lighting - the histogram does not 'pop up' as it did before, instead the dropper draw icon is enable and the only way to disable the dropper is alt F4, this is happening with other enhance options as well.
Note that the quick and guided mode are still working.
Expert mode was working fine till about 2 weeks ago, the only updates that have been done to the laptop have been the microsoft auto updates.
OS win 7
Java 7.45
flash player 12 active x
Have done an uninstall and reinstalled, but the issue still remains.
Need to understand what has caused the expert mode enhance options to be unusable.
Lightroom :: 3 - Secondary Display Has No View Or Mode Options
May 2, 2012I'm having trouble with the secondary display (window, in my case; only one monitor). When I first open the secondary display, either with a keyboard shortcut or by clicking, all is fabulous. The display modes (Grid, Loupe, Compare, Survey) are visible & clickable, as is thumbnail slider, file path. If I click or keyboard command to Loupe view, Normal, Live & Locked modes are available. However, if I close the window and then want to open it up later in my workflow, all of the aforementioned functions disappear. I'm able to bring up the Filter view, and can technically still work off the menu bar (and keyboard shortcuts, if remembered). But only if I restart the program do the full set of functions become visible again. The arrows at top & bottom don't collapse/expand to show anything more than a black border where the display & mode options once were.

Mar 14, 2012Ribbon has been acting strange. One example is when creating a sweep the ribbon will not show the mode options to accept or discard changes while creating the sweep path. I have to cycle the ribbon display options to show the X and check options to complete the sweep path. This is only one example of many different odd things happening.
Sometimes when I am simply drawing model lines the selection options for rectangle, circle etc do not appear until I cycle the ribbon display options. This only started in the last week or two.

Illustrator :: How To Unlock A Swatch On CS5
Apr 11, 2013I opened a PDF in Illustrator and it has 4 Spot color swatches. Two of them will not delete or let me alter them and I need to change them to CMYK. I've tried reopening the document, restarting my computer and copying and pasting everything into a new document. Nothing has worked for me. I've also tried selecting everything, and going to Edit > Edit Colors > Convert to CMYK ... and then making a new color group (with global checked.) Still won't let me edit the two problem swatches. I then went to "Select all unused" from the swatch panel (thinking they would at least get selected because all of the colors should link to my new global color group) and the two problem swatches did NOT get selected. I've tried deleting all the links (thinking maybe the spot color was tucked in an eps file or something.) No objects are locked and none of the layers are locked.

Illustrator :: Cannot Delete Colour Swatch In CS 5.5
Jul 3, 2012I can not delete some of the swatches (PMS colours) from the dock. I've tried to search for any artwork that may contain the colour, but I could not find anything.

I've tried to copy and paste the artwork in a new document, restart Illustrator but the problem persist.

May 10, 2013swatch that I have created in illustrator. Once the swatch is applied as a fill there is a white line surrounding the original pattern. I have read other blog posts about the issue that state that the lines are just on screen and dissapear when you export as a PDF and when you print. I printed the design today at three different scales (100%, 40%, 20%) and all showed a white line but only on the horizontal axis. Both horizontal and vertical lines are visible when exported as a PDF. The original design is vector.
Here is a screen shot of the design from my computer:
Here is a photo of what the design looked printed (notice that the white lines are ony visible on the vertical axis):

Illustrator :: Saving Pattern Swatch ASE
Aug 5, 2013I wanted to save a pattern swatch and not the whole swatch library so I deleted all the swatches until it was just the one pattern swatch. I saved it as an .ase and then opened it in another document. I noticed however that when I open the pattern in the other document it shows the default swatch library and no pattern swatch. When I save the swatch as an ai. it opens the default library as well as the pattern swatch. Is there a way to save just the pattern swatch?

Feb 11, 2014Is there anyway in JavaScript to replace one swatch with another?
I've seen other posts where similar questions have been asked, but the solution seems to involve iterating over all the pageItems, testing and then changing the fillColor.
All I want to do is delete/replace a specific color. Say replace Yellow with Green.
Is there a way of doing this without recursing through all of the page items?
Illustrator Scripting :: Get Swatch Name For Character?
Feb 28, 2012I'm needing to loop through each character of a text frame and check the color of each character. Is it possible to get the swatch name of each character? Or can you only get the red, green, blue values?
I've been experimenting with:
app.activeDocument.textFrames[0].characters[3].characterAttributes.fil lColor.typename;
// Returns SpotColor
But I can't figure out how to get the swatch name of the character this way?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: CS6 - Convert Swatch To CMYK
Nov 13, 2013I am working in Adobe Illustrator CS6 and InDesign CS6.
When I create a swatch using Pantone colour books (solid coated) and then convert the swatch to CMYK the values differ between programs and also differ to my hard copy of Pantone Colour Bridge.
I have followed the Workaround 1 on [URL]...which was useful - now the CMYK values produced in Illustrator and InDesign match HOWEVER they still differ from my hard copy of Pantone Colour Bridge.
I copied the leagacy files from CS4 - is it possible the CMYK values embedded in these files are out of date or is it possible that the CMYK values in the Colour Bridge book have since changed?
Illustrator :: Custom Swatch Library Isn't Updating In CC
Jan 17, 2014I have a big custom swatch library that I'm continually making additions and corrections to. I have it set as persistent, and the library works fine, but it doesn't update when I make changes to it. As far as I can tell, it's still stuck at the point where I upgraded to CC a few months ago. I've tried unchecking persistent, closing the library and Illustrator, then reopening and reinstalling the library, and it's still reverting to the old version.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: How To Make Zebra Print Swatch
Sep 16, 2012I know how to create swatches i made some other animal prints (leopard/cheetah). I also made straight line type of pattern swatches.
I don't know how to approach making zebra print swatch, because:
1. the zebra lines are not straight
2. some go all the way through the whole swatch and others stop half way or quarter of the way.
So it is really not like making a cheetah print swatch or a straight line type of pattern swatch.
Illustrator :: How To Get Swatch Color Changes To Update In Gradients
Jul 10, 2012When I drop a swatch color on a gradient, it doesn't link to the swatch color like in a solid fill.Nevermind the UI inconsistency with this behavior, since Adobe probably doesn't care, but how do I get around this?
Creating a Swatch from the gradient is not a solution for me, as I use the same base color in different gradients.
