Photoshop :: Opacity/ Non Square Pictures
Nov 22, 2005
This maybe a basic question, i'm new, i don't really know. I want to make a picture, just a small symbol, to put in the corner or movies i make. Just like on TV, how CBS has the eye in the bottom right corner, or NBC has their little peacock guy.
How do you make a picture like that?
I try to put the image i want, and have it with almost 0% opacity, and it looks fine in photoshop, but then when i look at it out of photoshop, the background is white, and sticks out alot.
I really just want the image, no background, and preferably i do not want it to be a square or rectangle.
how do i make it so it is barely visible, and with no white square around it in the background?

I have this image of a piece of bread. As you can see there is white area around the bread. I want to get rid of this (i.e. crop it out) so that when I import it into another program (mainly After Effects) all that can be seen is the bread and no white space on the outside. Is there a way to do this?

I am trying to create a document in Word that has "boxes" of text, peripheral to the main content, scattered through the text body. First, I want these areas of text to be circles and I want the text to wrap around them like it does the ovals you can create with the Word drawing tools.
The next thing I want is for the text inside these areas to conform to the internal shape of the circle.
My 1st problem is that any circle I create in photoshop, when inserted into the word document, has a square bounding box that the text wraps to. I can't seem to figure out how to save the photoshop picture so that it only contains the circular graphic, although I don't know if it is photoshop applying the square background or Word when I import the picture.
My 2nd problem is trying to fit the text within the graphic so that it fills it, wrapping to the inside border without manually adjusting every line and word. If there is some automated step I can use to achieve this I would love to know what it is.

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.

When I use the square selection tool, the selection edges are rounded rather than square. I can't remember how to rset this.
How do you make the edges square by default?

I'm using CS3 with a new computer and a 17in crt monitor. I set the monitor resolution via windows to 1280x1024. Made a 4 in square in Photoshop. It's square. When I change the resolution to anything less than 1280x1024 the square is taller than wide. It still shows 4x4 inches with the rulers.

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?

I am using photohsop cs6. I have defined a brush preset and I want to change the opacity jitter for that brush. However, the opacity jitter option which comes under transfer in brush panel is being inactive all the time. How do I enable it?

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 am trying to place pictures into my paragraph text so that the text wraps around the picture (like you can in Word).? Can anyone let me know how to do this in Photoshop 7.0 for Windows??
All I can find is how to wrap text around object (i.e. word on a coffee cup image itself) or putting the actual picture as fill for the font.?
how to do this? I have included a PDF of a sample of what I'm trying to do.

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.
