Photoshop :: How To Disable Scaling Up When Adding Opacity
Oct 8, 2012
Let's say for an example I'd like to cover a complicated section of my painting with a 50% opacity color, which can only be covered by using a brush, because the area is too restricted to use the paint bucket or any other tool.
How do I disable opacity scaling up to 75% where the brush strokes overlap, because it's impossible to cover the entire area in a single motion (without canceling the action by filing the pen for example).

Is it possible to disable the drag-up-and-down opacity change of the brush tool when alt+right clicking, only keeping the size change function?

It does it every 4-6 times which is really really often since you brush about 10 times every 3 seconds or so when digital painting especially when shading, lighting, blending, etc with brushing.
Why does it do this? I cant recall when it started doing this but I think it was either when I updated from CS4 to CS6 or maybe it just randomly kicked in. I already updated my drivers and re-installed my tablet.

In the animation I am working on, I need an object to instantly go from 100% opacity to 0% opacity. The problem is, even if you use the opacity of the layer as a keyframe, the object will not instanlty vanish, even if it is only on for the timeruler for a quick amount of time.
I need a tool that will drop from 100% opacity to 0% instantly.

New Responsive Scaling feature is great.
It's enabled me to add an Edge Animate file to my responsive Wordpress site using the Edge Suite Plugin.
Only problem for me is that although the 3.7MB file I’ve created scales perfectly on all devices it struggles to play on smartphones. (I assume it's too big and too power hungry to play smoothly on smartphones - even since I've added a pre-loader.)
So, in an ideal world, what I need is a separate low res Edge Animate file that only plays on smartphones.
Failing that, I’d be happy with a 'Down-level Stage' image which could replace the Edge Animate animation.
For a moment I thought I’d found a solution when I came across this Adobe TV movie: [URL]
Unfortunately this clever solution only works when the new Responsive Scaling feature is NOT selected. As soon as it is selected, the animation no longer changes from one layout size to another when the browser window is reduced.
I don’t mind whether the fix is in Edge Animate, Wordpress or the Edge Suite Plugin - I just want a solution!

We are designing some web graphics for a friend. By "we" I mean me and a guy who lives on the opposite coast.
He did the initial page layout/design as a PhotoShop tif, at 300 dpi, in layers and about 5 inches wide. The idea, on his end, was that it would be a small file size and, therefore, faster to download on my end. With me so far?
Anyway, I'm suppose to convert it to 800 ppi wide, 72 dpi, jpg. Sounds easy enough. Or not Do all the scaling and now the graphics don't look right. None of the layer effects are right!
How do I scale his graphic, for my purposes and, once it's the size I need it, have everything look the way he created it?
Example: Text at that 5 inch wide, 300 dpi size with a one point stroke on it looked find when the graphic was 5 inch wide and 300 dpi, but at 800 ppi wide and 72 dpi, it's all wrong
Is there a preference or something I should be clicking somewhere and I'm just missing it?

I have a PNG file with some transparency. I need to paint in some opacity in the alpha channel. How can I achieve this? In the Channels window, I can access the R, G and B channels just fine, but I need to access the Alpha channel. I need to make my image more opaque in places.

When you merge two identical layers (with solid black-filled shapes) and with, say, 30% opacity both, the resulting layer will be a layer with 100% opacity but with 30% transparent black-filled shapes. How will you make this 100% opaque?

When I make a layer mask and use my brush tool at 100% opacity you can still see some of the image below. It is as though 100% is only 98% or so.
When I merge down the layers the slight opacity shows on the flattened image. actually get 100% opacity?

Does anyone know how to photo shop calculates the resulting color when using brush opacity?
For example If I paint over a section with 100% brush opacity, then go over it again with another color with 100% brush opacity then the new color replaces the old. But what happens if when I go over the first color with a new color set at 50% opacity? How does Photoshop calculate the resulting color?

I realize there may be several right answers to this, but what is a fast and fairly easy method in lowering the opacity to the entire image?
The image that will be lightened, or it's opacity lowered, will be the background used in a montage.

This is something that i never really gave much thought - but what value do the opacity parentages really have?
See my assumption was that 50% + 50% = 100%. So if you had a solid black layer set to 50% opacity and you duplicated that layer one would think that it would be solid black again... but no is only 75% black. WHAT?
The other thing is that solid black with and opacity level of 50% over solid white is a true 50% gray which is half black and half white - do to half's not make a whole?

I am part of a research lab that is putting together experiments relating to visual cognition, and I was wondering how exactly Photoshop CS3 achieves opacity. Is it through pixel amount or another method?

I have 20 boxes that have to be linked like a flow chart over a black and white photo. Each box needs an opacity of about 50% white to insert text. Each box needs a 100% black stroke around it. But when I apply the stroke to the box and then lower the box opacity to 50%, the black stroke fades out as well. I can't find a way to allow the 100% stroke to remain 100% black around the 50% opacity box.

If there's an object with a semi-transparent part (without editable layer mask of course), is there any way to make it opaque again without ruining its original pixels?
(For those who know Corel PhotoPaint: I'm looking for the equivalent of "paint on transparency" mode)

Is there any reason the opacity won't stay completely opaque for the pencil and paint tools (and possibly other tools)? I have opacity set to 100% in the options bar at the top as well as the fill and opacity settings on the layers pallette. I can't see anywhere where opacity is being set to less than 100%.

I am interested to know how to create a layer where the opacity is gradually lowered from one side of the pic to the other. What I want is basically the effect you get with the gradient tool but with opacity and not colors.

I'm using Photoshop CS5 with a Wacom Intuos 3 and have not had any problems with my brushes before.
Today, however, I started to paint, and noticed that my brushes were acting up. I paint a brushstroke and everything is fine - but when I paint another one over it, it makes the first stroke appear darker, whereas I would want the second stroke to cover the first one.
My brush mode is set to Normal and the opacity is 100%.
I've opened previous files as well to see if it is just about the current file's settings somehow, but the problem still persists. And I don't recall having done anything to change the brushes' behavior before.

In CS6 when I increase/decrease size of my brush using alt+right-click on pen tablet, sometimes I also unintentionally change brush opacity by couple percentage (obviously my hand won't move perfectly horizontally every time I want to do it). It kills flow during work of course and I have to stick to CS5 for now unfortunately.I have only found option for turning off hardness change in preferences.

I'm trying to record an action that does the following:
1. Duplicate layer
2. Rotate the duplicate 15%
3. Drop the opacity of the duplicate 15%
The problem is the last step: How can I record a drop of 15% in opacity in an action? If I set the opacity to 85% then Photoshop will set the opacity of every duplicate as 85% and not minus it from the current opacity value of the layer.
So how can I create an action that will minus 15% from the current opacity of the layer?

I am familiar with the operation of the clone tool in previous versions of Photoshop.... However after upgrading to CS6 I am having a problem with the functionality of the clone tool.
Basically when using the clone tool when its set to 100% opacity & flow, it looks as though the clone tool is only set to 50% opacity.I am using the default configuration that came with the program.
My previous version was CS3... clone tool worked perfectly there...why the same tool doesnt perform the same way with the same apparent settings.
