Paint.NET :: How To Change Status Of Certain Area To Transparent
Dec 8, 2011
How I can change the status of a certain area to transparent?
I know, I can change the "Transparency Alpha" in the colour box, but on screen is still displayed the color. Worse, I need a transparent area for an RPG Maker, and this program doesn't take said area as transparent besides the setting in Paint.net.
A year ago I used Paint.Net for a map. I remember that I could select a freeform area by just clicking several dotted/dashed flickering points around the border so the lines were straight afterwards, when the dots were connected again. After that I could fill this area up with a transparant coulour. Now, off course, I can't seem to find how I did it.
I have an oval portrait. How do I make the area outside the oval transparent so only the oval picture shows up and it's not "framed" by the white area outside the oval?
I have a small grey 'play' icon which I want to change the grey area to brown. (Looks like I can't paste it here). It isn't just one color and has a side of ridge that shows an outline you'd press.Can I use PSP7 somehow to make the colour change?
I have an image that has a white background. I want to change this background to be transparent.
I can of course select everything around the image and delete it, but the pixels near the edge are a combination of a colour and the background colour. I want to be able to change these to the colour semi transparent (ie remove the background colour portion of the pixel). Is there some easy way to do this?
Currently working on a project that involves... well, white. And you know how it goes.
On a transparent background, the checkerboard pattern is kind of hard to work with. The project, to be exact, are sprites for a game I'm developing, and the 32x32 really limits what I can work with. Â EDIT: I just need it to be a different color. Black or grey would work fine.
With my dng files, when saving metadata to file (ctrl + S), after a moment the status of the file is become again as if I had not save the metadata. I used an old trick for this bug : saving metadata, then importing metadata from file, then it is durably ok.
I have setup smart collection to show all images that need to be saved to disk - "Metadata status has been changed". I did the update in smart collection and also in Library folder. On the disk xmp-file seems to be changed but in LR Metadata status is still "Has been changed". The files are CR2-files.After command status was one second "Up to date" but changed very soon "Has been changed". Metada Date was changed OK. Same happend with tif-files but not with jpg-files. All changes are in the sidecar file.
I am trying to use a shared project with my other colleagues. Problem we are having that we are not getting into how to change the File Check in/out Status (option is disabled/greyed) . Do we required administrative rights to do that?
I have a complex shape will lots of gaps, nad in those gaps is a layer that is colored orange. Is there a way to designate that all spaces with orange should appear transparent when saving as png? Â I cannot just delete the orange because it is convering things from other layers beneath which I cannot simply delete.
While making the background of an image of my son transparent, I realized a couple of days later that I made part of his hand transparent. Is there any way I can make his hand NOT transparent?  I don't believe there is, since the image data is lost, and I had to delete all the layers except for one, to reduce the file size.
I have a self designed logo that looks great on a white background. Problem is when I put the logo over a picture the outside area of the "o" in natco shows behond the red square. I want the outside of the "o" to be flush with the red square so it looks good when I put it over a picture.Â
I tried searching the forums for "Transparent Grid" and "Transparent Hex", but I could not find anything.I would like to create an image which is a Transparent Grid or Hex which I could lay over other images, like maps for roleplaying games.
I tried to use the eraser tool to remove all the white space from the image "TransparentHexes.png" (see attached). It was long and labor intensive, but when I tried to copy the image and lay it over another image, it removed the transparent parts and made them white space again, completely covering the underlaying image.
Perhaps there is a way to use the "Paint Bucket" to replace white with transparent? And how do I lay a mostly transparent grid over another image?
I have selected a Layer in Gimp and I have a certain selection inside the Layer.
Now I click on tool "Bucket Fill", Mode=Normal, Fill Type=FG Color Fill, Affacted Area=Fill Whole Selection.
Opacity is 100%
The FG color is black.
But when I click into the selected area it gets filled with a transparent black! When I click again it gets more opaque and after another click its fully opaque black.
But why does Gimp fill the area transparent after I first clicked even though Opacity is 100.0??
Photoshop generator nice to have features for future roll-out would be: Check box or similar for transparent PSD file to generate the whole canvas area, not just the image area.The ability to generate to a specific folder, including on a networked drive within a shared environment.Ability to generate to no folder at all, place in the same location that the PSD file is located Ability to generate an animated GIF.
I have colored in a part of a picture using the magic wand selection tool, then paint bucket. There is still some missed areas So I try to use the paintbrush tool .
However the paintbrush tool isn't applying any color (with me) .
I have been working with Paint.net for a couple of years and have never had this issue before. Suddenly, today, I tried using paint bucket to fill in a square and it filled in the entire image. I don't know if I accidently changed some setting on accident or what. how to make this stop so that the paint bucket only fills in the area I have outlined for it?
OK I am stuck. I have created a new image. Created a new trasnparent layer and deleted the background. I pasted an exising PNG (with transparency) into the layer. All my tools do not work. I can paint onto the exsiting image but when I try to paint over transparent parts of the layer nothing is shown. There must be some simple setting I dont know about right?
In previous versions of Revit (pre 2013) when creating an area plan and inserting the area within the created boundaries, I could double click on the 'Area' tag and rename 'area'Â to something more descriptive which automatically changed the name in the legend to match.
In 2013 this is no longer possible.Even opening a 2012 project, where this procedure worked, once this project is saved in 2013 format it is no longer possible to double click to change - it opens the family tag instead.
How would I go about making the side of his face less bright, how to isolate just that one specific area. (And I no longer have the xcf file saved).
I also noticed that after using the color and saturation tools, there are red lines on the scruff of his cheek. (I discovered that those lines were on the original pic, but they just became more visible after working with the color/contrast/etc). Is there any way that I can "smooth" those red lines without making it look like the dog's breakfast?
I am owner of the Xtreme5 Xara version (i've not already get more recents ones ! ), and I would like to know if it is possible to change the text area, not to have a squirreled shape for this text. (Or if there another method, I am interested in too !)
Very useful when you have to surround the shape of a picture, for instance...
im using Adobe PS 7.0. Im trying to So I have picture of A person standing in a city with clothes and everything. The thing im trying to do is changeing the color of his jacket (only) but every time I try it changes the color of the whole pictures or something else. Image>Adjustment>HueSaturation>Changeing from master to other color>then pressing ****+ and taking some samples> then when im draging the Hue or saturation its changes the whole picture. I also tried Replacing color but aswell denied.
How would I go about restricting text to a certain area?
Like I want to have some text within an area so that I can keep on typing and the text will automatically wrap to the next line when it gets to the edge of the area a bit like how the textarea box on the forum works.
If I move my cursor within 25 pixels of a transform control, it activates it. So, on smaller objects it becomes impossible to slide them. Because every time I have the mouse over the object, it is snapping to a transform handle.Thus, when I click, I am now either rotating or scaling the object. Â Is there some way to limit this active area to only 3 pixels around the handle, or turn off the cursor snapping to them?
Is there a way to change color of an area and have instant update while I'm still in the color picker dialogue? Â background info: Â I need to paint my house and I want to color the house in Photoshop first to test the color scheme. Currently I set it up so the house is first turned into gray scale, then a color layer is multiply or soft light onto the house to "paint" the house while retaining features of the house. There are several such color layers, each with a layer mask for the walls, the trims, and the garage door. Â When I want to change the color of, say the walls, I select that layer and fill it with a new color. But I don't see the new color until I exited the color picker and the fill dialogues. Is there a more interactive way to change color?
