Paint.NET :: Get New Background On Active Layer?

Dec 6, 2011

New user: I erased the background (BG) on the image I have so it is transparent. Saved as PNG. Now how do I put the new BG? I know I have to get the new BG on an active layer. Then, do I copy the FG (Foreground) image and paste somewhere. IOW how to merge the two? Must they be same size etc?

Paint.NET :: Scale The Background Layer?

Dec 7, 2013

The first layer you start with is the background, I want to know how to scale/re-size it around the image imported. I am trying to create my own Minecraft skin, so I want to re-size the entire default skin image so I can work with finer detail. But i need to create a border around the original image so I can re-size it back to its proper size to be successfully uploaded to the Minecraft webiste as my skin. I cannot make a border because if I do with its current state the border will go over the first outer line of pixels of the image; I just want it to be a pixel outside the image, not on it.

Paint Shop Pro :: Script - Know If Layer Is Background Or Not

Apr 18, 2013

I have a script that merge (Flatten) all layers but if an image has a single layer and that layer is a background layer then my script fails.What comes to my mind is to get a layer count and if that count is 1 then check if that layer is a background layer, if it is then do not merge.

How can i get a layer count and how can i get the layer type of a specific layer?Are there more resources about scripting in PSP, a library reference or something?

Paint.NET :: Bottom Layer (background) To Be 30% Opaque

Oct 3, 2013

I'm creating a large poster.  it consists of about 20 layers.  Not doing anything fancy, just adding a new photo to each layer or some text. I want the bottom layer (background) to be 30% opaque.  I know how to choose the layer and move the slider.  My poster looks great as a .pdn file.  However when I do a Save As .TIF, .PNG it reverts back to a solid photo of a soccer field instead of being more translucent. 
 
Does this have something to do with blending mode?

Paint Shop Pro :: Using Eraser On Layer Getting Orange Instead Of Background

Feb 12, 2012

I've converted hundreds of photos to B/W and used the eraser tool or masking to bring out the color detail from background.

I received one last night exactly the same image information that was on the other files. It was taken from my daughter's cell and previous pictures she sent never had a problem.

.jpg
72 PPI
RGB-8bit channel

Duplicated the background converted it to B/W in the Effect>Photo Effects>Black and White Film Clicked on eraser and instead of my daughter's white teeth there was an orange transparent area where I erased.I tried masking with the same effect.

Paint.NET :: Unable To Get Tools To Work On Non-background Layer

Dec 5, 2011

I am starting to color some old line art (cartoons) but can't get any (eraser, brush etc) tools to work on the non background layer. I could just auto fill on the background but that is too finicky, too many open shapes that end up filling the whole page in that color! I want so that I can color in indiscriminately w/o worrying about covering my lines.

How come I can't get so that when I erase, I don't get the transparency checkerboard underneath? I put the BG layer on top then the erase tool does not work! What fundamental thing did I forget?

Photoshop :: CS6 - How To Deselect Any Active Layer

May 12, 2012

I feel really dumb right now but for some reason I'm having trouble deselecting. First off, I'm talking layers and vector objects here. I know Cmd D deselects selections. But how you do deselect any layer which might currently be active? I'm working in PS CS6 for the first real time and it's like I suddenly got dumb or something.

I know you can select a blank area of the Layers Panel to do it, but my Layers Panel is full right now, so I don't even see any dead space. This is especially troubling because I'm making a lot of shape layers and if I do that while a layer is selected then I wind up making masks.

Photoshop :: Undo And Active Layer

Nov 11, 2008

If I am working on a layer, then select a new layer to work on, then paint on that layer, then undo: the brush stroke is undone, but also the previous layer I was working on re-becomes the active layer. I want it to stay on the new layer I selected. Is there an option for this?

GIMP :: Rescale Layer Using Rescale Tool With Layer Mask Active?

Jun 15, 2013

When you try to rescale a layer using the Rescale Tool with a layer mask active, it scales of the mask, likewise if you select the layer it will scale the layer. Can I select both the layer and layer mask and scale the layer, thus it keeps the layer mask showing the desired masked area only. As the only way I can see currently is by applying the layer mask on the layer and then you can see the layer/s below to get the scaling that is desired. But I would like to keep the layer mask active for editing after scaling.

Paint.NET :: Paint Whole Active Selection At Once

Aug 15, 2013

I am trying to select single color areas in the picture and paint them with different color. There are quite some of these areas in the picture, which is a problem for me. I have been using Magic Wand tool (with Shift click) to select all these areas with same color but I am not able to paint these selected areas with "one click".

Now I need to use Pain Bucket tool maybe 100 times to paint all the individual selected areas one after another. Is there way to paint the whole active selection at once?

AutoCAD .NET :: Event For Change Active Layer In Document

Aug 24, 2012

Is there event for change current (active) layer of document?

(it's not Database.ObjectModified - it's not raised).

I tried to do it with binding as:

public void Initialize()
{
var layerList = Application.UIBindings.Collections.Layers;
layerList.PropertyChanged += new PropertyChangedEventHandler(LayerList_PropertyChanged);

And -= in Terminate, but... Autocad 2012 chashed _sometimes_!!!

Impossible to understand when it happened. So I reject this way. Is there other way to handle this event?

Illustrator Scripting :: Change Active Layer Name Same As Document Name

Sep 30, 2013

I would like to make the active layer name the same as the document name.  I know very little about scripting.  I found this script:
 
var idoc = app.activeDocument;var ilayer = idoc.activeLayer;var filename = idoc.name;ilayer.name = filename;
 
It does almost what I need it to do. except that it also copies the ".ai" in to the layer name.  Is there some way to modify this script to have it exclude or delete the file extension?

Photoshop :: Crop Tool When Vector Mask Is Active On A Layer

Jun 21, 2013

Using Photoshop CC, if you have a vector mask on a layer and attempt to crop the image, the vector mask shifts incorrectly after the crop is completed.  The image is garbled.  If I rasterize the vector mask to a standard layer mask, the crop works successfully. 
 
I've checked to make sure that there are no numbers in the crop tool options.  Nothing appears to be set incorrectly.

AutoCAD VB :: All Layers Locked Except Active Layer Chosen In Combobox?

Dec 21, 2012

I have a form with a combobox and a commandbutton.

 All layers in the layermanager must be locked except the active layer chosen in the combobox. I try it with this code but it’s not the right solution.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()Dim layer As AcadLayer'check if all layers are lockedIf layer.Lock = False Thenlayer.Lock = True'make the layer selected in the combobox currentThisDrawing.ActiveLayer = ThisDrawing.Layers.Item(ComboBox1.Text)End SubPrivate Sub UserForm_Initialize() Dim layerColl As AcadLayers Dim layer As AcadLayer Dim LayList As String ' all layers locked For Each layer In ThisDrawing.Layers If layer.Lock = False Then layer.Lock = True End IfNext 'fill combobox Set layerColl = ThisDrawing.Layers For Each layer In layerColl ComboBox1.AddItem layer.Name Next End Sub

 2. When I choose the for next method to lock all layers (40 layers) it’s very slow.

Illustrator Scripting :: Change Color Of Text Frames On Active Layer?

Mar 3, 2013

Okay my script to change text frame color changes the color of all text frames hidden or not.

I need it to only change visible text frames.
 
if ( app.documents.length > 0 ) {
newCMYKColor = new CMYKColor();
newCMYKColor.black = 0;
newCMYKColor.cyan = 0;
newCMYKColor.magenta = 0;
newCMYKColor.yellow = 0;
 
[Code]...
 
How to go about making it only change the color of text frames on the active layer? In the final script I will hide all other layers so if it could be done by a visible attribute more easily that would work just as well.

Edge Animate CC :: Working With Polygon Shapes And Defining Active / Non-active Mouseover Areas?

Mar 7, 2014

Since Edge only has rectangles and ellipses built in as available shapes, how to I/we work with polygon shapes and active mouseover areas INSIDE of these shapes and non-active mouseover areas OUTSIDE of the shapes?
 
Problem/symptom: when I import a polygon, be it any file format from from Photoshop or SVG from Illustrator, a rectangular border/background (transparent) gets applied, leading to this rectangle defining the mouseover area of the shape - and not the shape itself (be it a star or whatever).
 
WHAT I WANT: the very shape defines the mouseover area. How do I achieve this?? See examle below:
  
WHAT I DON'T WANT: how is is now:

Photoshop :: Reference Point Location Jumps To Cursor When Moving Active Transform Layer?

Aug 1, 2013

I have a layer I'm resizing and is currently in Transform.When I beging to drag the layer to position while it is in resize the center reference point will jump to my mouse causing me to move the reference point outside of the tranform layer. Normally I would have to click on the reference point and drag it intentionally or hold CTRL and click in the transformed layer to set a reference point, but it since CS6 is had still remainded in CC.
 
This happens when I transform the layer (Ctrl+T) and then grab the layer to move. I have to put the reference point back to center via mouse or by the reference point on the menu bar up top. Then I can go back and drag my later where I need it to finish my transform.

Paint.NET :: Color Picker - Active Pixel Data Display On Toolbar

Oct 12, 2012

Feature that would pick the right color on the 1st mouse click when working with images that have many colors and shades etc...Today we need to move the mouse over the pixel and click it to select the color under it and make it active, only then we get the RGB/HSV/Alpha info about it.and if its not the correct pixel info we need to select again. etc...

to make the color selection faster and more accurate on the first click and also enable us to select directly only the pixel with RGB info we want.

It would be great to have online/active display of the Color and RGB/HSV/ALPHA information on the pixel under the color picker , in the toolbar like in the picture i have added.this would make color selection easy and with less clicks on the mouse.just move the mouse over the image, look at the color and select the color you need.the data can be placed anywhere, I just placed it there since its connected to the tool.

This would be great to have on other tools, like the (Magical) Fill Bucket so we can select the color we want to fill with other color etc...or the Magic Wand selection tool to select the color with the RGB info we want.

Maya Animation :: Hide Non-active Animation Layer F-curves In Graph

Apr 18, 2013

My current scene has 10 animation layers for a character, and seeing every f-curve from all layers, although grey and locked, when I only need to see the f-curves in layer I'm working on is really cluttering the graph editor. My current work around is selecting my active layer in the Layer Editor every time I select a rig control. Simple enough, but a pretty inefficient way of working. I can't seem to find a setting that allows me to just see ONLY the fcurves in the active layer. I imagine some of you out there may have hundreds of animations for a single game character.

Photoshop :: Adding Layer And Part Of Layer Blend Into Background

Jun 2, 2013

this is my problem:
 
Pic 1. I have an image I want to use as a background, however the image is not complete. I need a part of pic 2 to fullfill it.

Pic 2. The colors around the object doesn't match the colors of Pic 1.
 
Normally it would be best to cut the object out. However in this case it wouldn't look nice (the object is mixed out (in color) with the rest of the image). If I cut out something the object won't look "proper".

My question:
 
How can I blend pic 2 on pic 1, using the original object from pic 2 (as it is), and at the same time blend the colors around it, so that it matches that of pic 1 / or simply remove it somehow?
