Photoshop :: Color Top / Sides Of 3D Cube Or Rectangle With Gradient
Jun 2, 2013
I am using PS CS6 extended on Win 7.
Two Questions
1) How do I color the top and sides of a 3D object, made by extrusion a rectangle, with a gradient color? In what I am doing.... I don't really care about the "texture" of the 3D rectangle, I want the top and sides to match the gradient I made on the face of the rectangle. I see the in properties of the extruded material the diffuse, specular, illumination and ambient settings.....but none of these lets you pick a gradient color.
I "guess" I can make separate layers to build a 3D rectangle box, and warp/distort the visible top and side after coloring it with a gradient..........but it seems like this is the idea, or part of the idea of a 3D object.
2) Why is there no true 3D rectangle objects, only cubes (spheres, pyramids, etc.)? Can you scale the cube into a 3D rectangle, if so how?

I am trying to create a rectangle panel wood with sides with different angles (700x1000mm and thick of 15mm) 2 sides need to be 45degres and the 2 other 25degres.
I have tried withh the Extrude and taper function ...but this doesn t let me create different angles(taper) on each sides.
What would be the best way to do this? What other function could i use?

I'm trying to create an effect on a webpage using a gradient. I'm basically looking for 4 regular linear gradients starting at each of the four sides of the page and turning transparent/white in at about 15%, I don't want the gradient to go all the way to the middle. The problem is of course the corners, I cannot figure out a way to make them look right.
 Does anyone know how to do this or have any ideas? I'm new to ps but fairly proficient. This is what I have so far but I'm looking for blended corners, like a picture frame....one of the keys that I'm looking for is the ability to change how far the gradients extend from the edge of the page.

I have Photoshop CS and I am not sure how to create a rectangular box (in the corner of a photo) with a black border of about 3px, and the inside of the box should be colored in an orange-yellow gradient.
Then I want to create another rectangular box (in a different corner of the same photo), again with a black border of about 3px, and the inside of the box should be a straight white.
I have tried it using the rectangular marquee tool and then going to Edit | Stroke (3 px), but the border itself is colored orange/yellow. I click the gradient tool and that part seems OK, but I end up with an orange/yellow gradient framed by a yellow border - and not a black one.

I have CS5. The bugs and broken features in AICS6, make it unusable in my workflow.
I am specifically concerned about the inability to drag global color swatches from the color panel to Gradient stops in the Gradient Panel. I use this method to update a gradient color because I find it MUCH faster than option-dragging to duplicate a stop color, then deleting the unused stop. Since I do this constantly, I find using CS6 very tedious.

These gradients in gimp are really hard to figure out (not saying other things seem easy to me), however I'm sure if one knows what to do, they can solve many problems.
I had that screenshot of a text list:
And I wanted to make it fade away from the highlighted line:
However, with the blend tool, this is actually impossible or really really hard, because I can't aim it so preciselly.

PS CS6
I have a document that is 8X12 with a white background.
1. create new layer
2. click on color from swatches.
3. draw a rectangle holding shift. Now I have rectangle that has a color. (Change to Pixels in options)
Can I copy that new rectangle with a different color?? Can I copy and replace that color??
Sounds simple. I can't find a method to do it!
The reason to do it this way is the rectangle will show in layer as a colored square on transparent background.

I have a solid color rectangle on a layer.
I would like to create several similar rectangles on different layers with different opacity levels (i.e. 90%/75%/50% etc), that will match the solid color rectangle exactly, when they are against a white background.
I used Hue/Saturation on the transparent rectangles to approximate the solid color, but the eyedropper shows that I am a of couple values off. Is there a way to accurately match these colors exactly?

I try to got an color gradient from the outer side to the inner side of this geometry
the problem : The bandwidth of the gradient should be more or less the same in all areas of the green geometry(means the whole spectrum of the colors). And the gradient has to go perpendicular from the outer to the inner side.

I got an annoying problem with a weird color gradient that appears where it shouldn't. My context is, that I'm producing underwater photomosaics. I use Photomerge for merging, which works great for the often uniform seabed sediment images.
[merge1.jpg]
The example is 65 images, btw. After placing the images manually within Photomerge, all looks great and ready for a perfect result after rendering (see above). However, when doing so, the final merge from within Photomerge (by clicking the OK button) creates perfect smooth blending, but a weird color gradient crossing the whole mosaic.
this might originate in the fact, that the individual images also are not perfect, due to the uneven lighting situation underwater. In case all images are a bit reddish at the top and yellowish at the bottom, the final gradient over the full mosaic shows that as well. So to me it looks as if Photoshop just tries to be too smart and thinks, reapplying that pattern to the whole would be a great thing to do, which it isn't of course.
[merge2.jpg]
I discussed this "bug" with Adobe staff and they recommended, to create the merge with the "Blend Images Together" option in the "Load" dialog unchecked. This creates a mult-layer document after rendering, with the images being placed properly but not blended.
[merge3.jpg]
From here on, Adobe staff recommended, I shall use the "Auto Blend Layers" function (File menu), but the result is identical as image 2. Ok, then, they recommended, to uncheck "Seemless Tones and Colors" in the "Auto Blend Layers" dialog. Indeed, this gets rid of the gradient, ...
[merge4.jpg]
... but shows very hard edges of the images, which get very prominent after optimizing levels:
[merge5.jpg]
Was that understandable? How this could be handled in a way, that my resulting mosaic looks as perfect with respect to the original colors as in the initial merge window before rendering it (image 1)? Maybe it's a specific Color Setting (Edit menu)?
The problem appears, btw, in CS3 to CS6!

I have placed a rectangle in my template and want to know if there's anyway to fill this rectangle with a color?
I can use another object if that's better - mainly wanting to be able to fill a pre-determined space with a back color.

I have 4 layers (background, layer1, layer2, layer3-text). They fill all 300 x 600 pixels that comprise the .psd/future image. What I want to do is use a rounded rectangle to encompass all of the other layers, so that the surrounding pixels (around the rounded rectangle) are transparent.
I want all of my current layers to be the content of a rounded rectangle.

I am brand new to web design and I have Web Designer 6.0. I've looked at video instructions and can not figure this out. I am trying to group a simple rectangle filled with color to some text that will make the rectangle in the background, the text in front, and be one object. It says choose both objects and then group them, but I can choose the rectangle or the text, but not both. I know this is a simple thing to do, but I'm brand new and can't figure it out.

I'm coming from Fireworks.A technique I use often in my ui work is to combine a texture with a gradient that fades the gradients color and the pattern to transparent.
In Fireworks, this can be done on a single layer with no mask. The transparency of the gradient affects the pattern.This is not the case in Photoshop. I am wondering how I can accomplish the same thing in Photoshop, while keeping everything vector.

I have a foreground and background color selected. I want to draw a line with a gradient between the two colors. All I get is a line in the foreground color.
The help talks about a checkbox "use color from gradient" but I don't have that on my tool options. I can see the sample gradient displayed there though.

how do I create a gradient using my own colors? I've recently upgraded form CS3 where I was able to just drag a colour swatch onto the gradient slider to set the colour. Now I can't do that. If I try with one of the default colors it works no problem but if I create my own swatch then I get a circle with a line through it saying I can't do it.
