Photoshop :: CC - Cannot Get Fully Opaque Stroke?
Oct 29, 2013
I'm running Windows 8.1 on a Surface Pro 2. I've got up to date Wacom Feel drivers.
The issue is, when I've got the "Tip Feel" set to medium in the Wacom Pen Tablet settings in the Control Panel, I cannot get a fully opaque stroke. No matter how hard I press, it takes at least two strokes of the same color (I used full black in my picture) to get a fully opaque stroke.
In the image, I changed the settings in the Wacom Pen Tablet settings to softer, eventually getting to the softest. While in the softest setting, I could get the pen to produce a fully opaque stroke, but then I lose the full range of Shape Dynamics pressure sensitivity. I know I can just turn the opacity control off to get fully opaque strokes, but I'd prefer not to, as that'd be a fairly big interruption to my workflow.

I would like to image a 3d printed material made of metal. It is a few millimeters wide and deep. It is composed of metal arms that connect to each other to form intersections. I want to measure the pore size of this material. Obviously, I have to tilt the sample and collect images taken from different perspectives and then combine them to form a 3-d image. Can photoshop do this? I know it can stitch images together but can it account for differences in sample tilt?

Come across the problem whereby when all documents are closed down in Photoshop CS6 on Mac, there is still an opaque rectangle filling the screen and preventing the user from simply clicking through to the application underneath?

I want to create a top down view image of a pile of autumn leaves. Something like the attached image.
So how to have an isolated image of a single leaf, create a brush from it, set the brush dynamics to create a random scatter and size of leaves and paint this on a few separate layers to create the impression the leaves are on top of each other.
The problem is since the singe leaf is color and not a simple 100% black silhouette, the resulting brush is transparent. So this is no good for what I need.
Is there a way to create a brush (or some other technique) so I can simply move the mouse across the screen and it will paste full color / 100% opaque copies of the isolated leaf with brush dynamics to create random sized / angled copies of the leaf?
Or is the only way to achieve what I need going to involve making manual copies of the leaf which would take a long time?

Using CSS, I want to put a semi-transparent image over another image (by semi-transparent I mean a GIF in which alternating pixels are transparent - see attachment).
I drew this image basically pixel-by-pixel (via copy/paste), and it's ok as far as it goes, but what I REALLY want is for the density of opaque pixels to increase from left to right, so the effect when laid over an image is essentially that of a gradient. I DON'T want to have to draw this image pixel by pixel!
Whenever I try and accomplish this in Photoshop, it uses semi-transparent pixels which then become opaque when optimized. If I could figure out how to tell photoshop to build a gradient using only 1 color and no semi-transparent pixels (or barring that, white and another color and then I could delete the white...),

I created a black and white logo in Illustrator (vector).
I flattened it and saved it as a PS file.
I took it into FW and used Export Wizard. I checked transparency (index); made it an PNG 8.
When I see the file in the Finder it shows as transparent.
When I import the file into AI or ID it comes in with an opaque white background.

I have two frames with the start and end of my animation. My two layers contain a transparent background and an opaque object. When I choose the tweening option and add my specified number of frames, then test the animation, the start of the animation is 0% opaque and slowly becomes 100% at the end.
My two layers used for start and finish are opaque. I have all the checkboxes checked by default for the tweening, and I can't figure why I'm getting a fade-in effect for my animation.

I've gone to create a new shape layer or text layer, it appears like it's at 50% opacity. I've checked my layer settings, and they're all at 100% fill and opacity. I can't see any reason why they'd be semi-transparent, and none of the settings I've tried have changed anything. I've even tried deleting the shapes/text, saving my document, and starting over. That worked one time, but this time it's not working.
Even applying a color overlay still results in a semi-transparent shape.I am in the middle of doing a design for a client, for print, and I really can't be dealing with this right now.

I'm trying to create a selection out of the square marquee tool with rounded corners. The only way I know how to do this is to set the feather to 5px or 10px or whatever. But when I try to fill this selection with a certain color (with the paint or pencil tool) I get a gradient. That is, instead of a uniform color all throughout the selection, it's almost clear near the edges and slowly becomes opaque as you move closer to the center of the selection. I do I create a square selection with rounded edges so that filling it creates an evenly opaque color?

I think that we can control tones under all the opaque areas of a layer with the contour editor for shaping layer effect ... and after that with the choke and size sliders, we can control the extend of its appearance. But, I think that, in fact, I could not soundly understand how it is functioning.

Since initially installing PS CS6, the tooltips do not completely display. I get part of the white band to pop up that displays slightly less than the first letter of the tool tip. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and the problem persists. I'm using Photoshop CS6 v. 13.0.1 x 32 on Windows 7 Enterprise. I have the Adobe Design and Web Premium CS6 and tool tips work just fine on all the other programs that I use in the suite.

I'm using photoshop 7.0 and my problem occurs with Imageready. I am using Vista, but this has not been a problem for the past year (so I don't think it's Vista related).I recently created an animation in Imageready and it worked just fine. However, when I returned to use Imageready again, I received the error listed above.Reinstalling does not resolve this problem. If I do a system restore, I am able to use Imageready again. . . but only one time. after which the same error occurs.

Is there a way or an option I am missing to convert my regular paths to a path stroked with a brush profile,while maintining the proper stroke width?
For instance, I have a regular line with a stroke of 5 and then add a brush profile, which then converts the original stroke to whatever the brush was made at.

I have a Windows 64-bit system, Vista Home Premium.Had CS4 installed initially, ran without problems.
I got the CS5 upgrade, and installed it without problems. I have copied over various actions and other customizations from the CS4 installation folders to the CS5 installation folders, installed 3rd party plug-ins into CS5, etc.So to save on Disk space, I want to Uninstall CS4 (and with it Bridge Version 4 as well).
I've done some searching here, and apparently this is potentially not as straightforward as one would expect. Various problems have been reported, apparently confirmed by Adobe personnel, that Uninstall CS4 also removes CS5 files, rendering it unable to run, etc.
So - what is the proper procedure to follow to successfully Uninstall CS4 without creating problems for CS5? Do I need to deactivate the license for CS4? What other specific steps?

I have been using Photoshop for years with no problems. I had to reinstall it a couple of time due to my PC having problems. But this is the first time i have had this problem.
I open an image and it is transparent. All you see is the boarder. When i select the boarder you can see the image, but as soon as i click off the boarder it disappears.
This image shows that you can not see the picture, but there is a file and an image, as you can see the layer on the right with a picture in it.
This has never happened before, i assume that there is a setting to be changed, but i cannot find it.

I've a problem with Gimp that comes from the fact that, when resizing a layer it becomes opaque, as if it were the foreground.
And the problem is that i wish to resize it to square it with another layer (that i don't see when resizing).

What I'm aiming to do is make my blocks (the components in pink) opaque, so that the DIN rail (yellow) which the components are mounted on cannot be seen. Preferably without using the hatch tool because it gets a bit messy and makes the computer run slowly, unless there's a sneaky feature of it I'm not aware of.
What I've been doing so far is just trimming the DIN rail to the right length, but because I very often have to alter the position, add or remove components I have to replace the DIN rail each time.

I have noticed that with CS 6, I can't fully use an application by clicking on it from another open application. If I am in Illustrator and Photoshop is in the background, I click on the Photoshop interface and it comes to the front of the screen, but that's all it does...no functionality beyond this. What must be done is for me to click on the Finder first, then click on the application icon in the Dock in order to access the program's functionality fully.
It doesn't matter if it's Lion or Mountain Lion...I have two machines with different operating systems and both do the same thing.
I don't know if this is an Adobe issue or an Apple OS issue. I have looked into all the preferences on the applications as well as the OS X control panels...no luck.

i downloaded Photoshop CS 6 and wanted to try it. I opened a picture to render but, as you could read in the title, the pictur is partly transparancy. Actually it isn't (that fact you can also see under Layer).
When I duplicate the layer, than the layer above is completely transparent ...

I have an image with just one color, black. But it has a shadow which is partially opaque. I want to select the shadow, so I can delete it. But when I use "select by color" it selects the whole image including the shadow. How do I just select the shadow? Or conversely, how do I just select the image?

In printing a top view of a stacked assembly. How can you set it up so the top part is opaque to the part underneath it.
Example: I have a cylinder actuator on actuator layer on top of that I have mounted a switch box on switch box layer. When I print I want to see the top of the switch box and only see the areas of the actuator that are not covered by the switch box.

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?

I did this for CS6 but am at a loss for how to do it in CC.
I'm on a Mac and want my workspace to have a solid background instead of being able to see through it onto my desktop; similar to what you would see when first openning Illustrator on a Windows PC. Doing this also adds the minimize, close, etc. buttons to the header.

I made a document with two layers, one with lineart, and another below it with some background elements I tried to put a new layer over the two of them by clicking the Create New Layer button, and after placing an object in the layer, tried to set the layer to Multiply by clicking the sleection circle, then "Multiply" in the Transparency drop-down menu. Nothing happened.
I then tried to set the transparency of the objects themselves to Multiply by selecting them and changing their transparency. Nothing happened.
I am able to copy the lineart and background layer and paste them into a new document, and have subsequently created layers appear properly when I set them to Multiply, but I have been trying to figure out what I apparently "broke" so that the layers would not display correctly.

In PS CS5 when I open an image with height dimension in range of 1405-1411 or 1873-1882, the image opens half off the bottom of the screen. Width does opt seem to matter.
I assume this is a bug, but until fixed I am trying to work around.
For manual editing the vertical fit screen button or zooming out causes the image to come on screen, but is neither of these display options will record in an action.
When an image is opened half off screen, a Place command does not place accurately for these images. Thus an action that includes a Place does not run correctly for these images.
So either I want to find a setting (nothing in preferences that I can find) to force the image to open on screen, or find a command that will run in an action that causes image to come on screen, while not interefering with images that open normally.

Have just upgraded from Elements 9 to Elements 10 and used the File -> Rename function to rename 3000 files with a new Base name beginning 'Base' the process reported it had completed and did not provide any additional messages - but checking the result not all files were renamed and a large number were left behind with the original Base name.

I have a shape with a black stroke and green fill. I have a white line segment over it. How do I get it so that the end of the line segment doesn't show over the black stroke of the object? If I try to put the line segment behind the object, then the object fill hides it completely.
I'm new to illustrator and I've tried to search for an answer but I don't know the best way to accomplish what I want to do. Seems like some combination of transparency or knockout groups and I've read a bit about this and can't figure out what I need to do.
