Photoshop :: Gradual Transparency On A Layer? - CS2

Feb 20, 2006

I am using Adobe Photoshop CS2. I formerly had been using CorelPHOTO-PAINT, but have since then moved on to better things.

In CorelPHOTO-PAINT, there is a tool called the "Interactive Object Transparency Tool." This tool was simple: you'd select an object (layer) and click a start point, you then would move your cursor in the desired direction, clicking once again to complete the function. The further away the second (or end) point was, the more gradual the transformation to transparency.

I know CS2 has a Gradient Tool, but that involves colors, and I want to gradually and directionally decrease the opacity on a layer without involving color.

Photoshop :: How Do You Create A Gradual Transparency?

Feb 22, 2003

This might be a really obvious question, but I was wondering... If I was to have a rectangular object or something... how could I apply a gradient of sorts that makes it starts completely solid, but gradually becomes more and more transparent?

Photoshop :: Gradual Blur ?

Aug 3, 2008

I have taken a group photo of people in a park and I would like to blur the people in the background. I want to use the lens blur so the blurring looks like it was done through the lens.

I also want to avoid the image looking like that the sharp object was pasted on a blurred background especially around the hair on the subjects heads, which is why I am looking for a gradual blur.

Photoshop :: Layer With Different Transparency Pattern?

Oct 5, 2012

I'm working with Photoshop CS6 Extended and in the last two days have started to have problems with some files.One of the main layers gets a strange pattern over the top of it and at closer inspection relised that the pattern was infact transparent, allowing you to see through to the background layer.

This is my current set up:

Photoshop :: Transparency Shapes Layer

Aug 31, 2013

The explanation of the reference book:

"Select Transparency Shapes Layers to restrict layer effects and knockouts to opaque areas of the layer. Deselecting this option, which is always selected by default, applies these effects throughout the layer."

What is the meaning of applying effects throughout the layer?

When I deselect this option, I can never see any effect applied ...

Photoshop :: Layer Opacity Vs. Transparency

May 8, 2006

I was just wondering what the practical difference was between the Opacity of a layer and the transparency of a layer. They seem to have the same effect, but I reckon that Adobe wouldn't have seperated them for no good reason.

how to get rid of the transparency in a layer?

Photoshop :: Transparency Layer Mask

Mar 16, 2004

What I want to do is create a sort of �transparency layer mask�, meaning that this layer will go on top of all my existing layers and will make an area transparent according to the mask. Kind of drilling a hole to transparency through all the layers underneath. I see that you can do similar things with adjustment layers but I couldn�t make one for transparency. Even better would be to be able to specify which underneath layers this layer will affect.

VideoStudio :: Gradual Playback Speed Increase?

Mar 12, 2011

I have a video shot from inside a vehicle driving down a rural French road. I would like to increase the speed to 110% to 115% as the video progresses to match the music I will overlay it with.

I know how to increase the playback speed, but I can't seem to find if it's possible to do it gradually. Everything I try increases the speed all a once. Is this possible (gradually increase speed) with the Playback Speed settings, or do I need to make two clips of the same segment, 1 at regular speed and 1 at the final speed, and use a long transition between them?

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Gradual Change From One Assembly To The Next - SAC

Nov 1, 2013

I'm in the process of building a subassembly in SAC. My goal is to have it transition from one cross section to another over a set length (by using station values). I can set it up so that at a certain station it switches cross sections, but I need to have a gradual change.

I've looked at other posts on here, but they all relate to road cross sections and changing slope (at least from what I saw). Any insight as to the proper way to do this (maybe with Auxiliary points and links)

Photoshop :: Retain Transparency And Set Background Layer With PNG-24 Files

Jun 18, 2008

Retain Transparency and Set Background Layer with PNG-24 Files

Whenever Flickr converts a PNG-24 file to a JPG, the transparent background of the multilevel PNG gets converted to black. I do not want this. I want PNG-24 file to retain its transparency and have a background color set for handling JPG conversion.

I heard this can be done by creating a 100 percent transparent white layer, setting it as the background layer, and flattening the image.

How do I do this with Photoshop CS3?

GIMP :: Not Erase Something Off The Transparency Layer

Jan 28, 2014

I loaded one PNG pic.

I added an alpha channel to make it a transparency.

I used the select by color tool.

I clicked white & removed.

I saved. I switched to eraser - but it is acting like I'm trying to erase something off the transparency layer and won't erase anything.
I have the correct layer selected in the layers window.

GIMP :: Layer Transparency Does Not Work

Aug 15, 2012

I find myself creating new layers and making them slightly transparent all the time. But when I do this using Gimp it does not work right? This is what I am doing:

Add new layer

use transparency/opaque slider to change the setting

what happens is that the new layer stays solid until it goes below 50% on the slider and then it disappears, above 50% and it is back. It is like the 50% mark is an on/off switch for the layer.

GIMP :: How To Add Textures And Transparency To Layer

Nov 25, 2013

I'd like to achieve an effect similar to the one shown here:

[URL]

What I need to do...

1.) Take screenshots of various pages of code (did this)
2.) Use masks (or maybe not) to apply some sort of texture behind each screenshot
3.) Use a perspective effect to rotate each page of code to varying extents
4.) Use masks and transparency (or maybe not?) to paste the pages on top of each other in layers

I should be looking up and combining to get there, and with other specifics.

Regarding (1), do I want to capture screenshots of black text on a white background? Or, the reverse? Regarding (2) and (4), are these right?

Paint.NET :: How To Remove All Transparency From The Image / Layer

Oct 19, 2012

The attached image has transparencythat I don't want.

What I would like to do is eliminate all transparency from the image so that I can then use the eraser tool to make transparent the areas that I want transparent.

I can't figure out how to remove all transparency from the image / layer. I'm new to paint.net, it may be obvious to others how to do this but not to me

The layer properties (where I thought I'd fix this) show opacity 255 now but the image still has unwanted transparency.

Illustrator :: Duplicate Type Layer With Transparency?

A common effect in vintage typography, as seen here:

I imagine it will take some customization of the paths, particularly in the case of how the word "Seattle" appears here. But I basically need to figure out the best way to duplicate the layer and keep only the parts of it I want to keep as an accent "shadow"
