Photoshop :: Partially Locked?

Jun 3, 2008

I have a file that someone created and one of the layers says that it is 'Partially Locked'.

I never had delt with this before and was wondering how I go about unlocking it.

Double Clicking it, like I do with locked layers, only brought up the layer style property box.

Photoshop Elements :: 12 - Background Layer Only Partially Locked

Nov 28, 2013

I recently purchased elements 12.  When using layers, I noticed the background layer was only partially locked and not fully locked as I was assuming it should be.  I couldn't find anywhere that I could change this.

Photoshop :: Partially Locked Layer But No Icon Highlighted Under Lock

Jul 7, 2013

1. I try to use any auto correction such as tone, and nothing appears to change

2. I see the small layers 'background' icon flashing as I do this into the black and white check pattern

3. It seems that the layer background is partially locked- (when I scroll my mouse over the 'lock' icon this is written)

Yet there is no icon above in 'lock' that is highlighted. So I cannot unlock it.I am able to adjust in all other methods which are not auto corrections. Perhaps I changed some settings accidentally?

Photoshop :: A Way To Partially Sharpen?

Apr 18, 2008

I have an image that when I Sharpen, is it too much of an effect. In other words, I wish there was a middle setting between it being sharpened and not sharpened. Is there a way to adjust the amount of sharpening?

Photoshop :: Files Only Load Partially

May 29, 2012

In PS CS6 (trial version for windows - I use windows 7) ordinary photo files only load partially. Huge pixel blocks seem te be absent. Only after a second attempt they load as should be. My hardware is rather up to date (6 GB work memory); I 've never had this problem in CS 5.

Photoshop :: Getting Rid Of Partially Transparent Pixels

Oct 1, 2011

I have an image (of many layers) which are mostly solid color, and solid alpha. 1-bit alpha, which is exactly what i want. However there are a few parts which are slightly blurry, where it fades between the two. this is causing problems in my end result. The common white halo effect.

I've tried the flaming pear solidify plugin, and it's totally not what i want. I don't want to fill everything with color or mess around with alpha channels. What i want to do is convert all partially transparent pixels, to either 0 or 100% alpha, with no middle ground. Essentially to make the image alpha binary. ideally some plugin which lets me define the threshold for one or the other would be nice.

I'm saving as an 8bit png, which naturally forces everything to be 1-bit alpha. this is unfortunately resulting in a lot of pixels being white where they show as almost invisible in Photoshop, so i want to fix this problem author side. Ideally i'd like to not mess around with alpha channels - i like the png format because i never have to touch the alpha channel, it's all done for me which speeds up workflow dramatically. I know i can save as a 24 bit png which will store the partial alpha information, but this also increases file size which is not an acceptable compromise for my purpose.

Photoshop :: Partially Rounded Corners?

Jan 3, 2005

I am trying to make an image have the shape like the one used on this webpage's navigation.

Initially, I thought I could acheive this by using the same technique you use for rounded borders, but since only two of the borders are round, I assumed that it could not be done this way.

So, now I'm assuming I have to use the pen tool in some way.

how or if the pen tool is even the right tool.

Photoshop :: Solidifying Partially Transparent Pixels?

Jun 4, 2012

I'm making graphics for a 2D game. One important part of performance optimisation is getting rid of unnecessary alpha sorting. I don't want partial alpha unless i have a specific need for it. I'm wanting all my images to be 1-bit alpha only. That is, a pixel is either completely opaque, or completely transparent - never inbetween.

I'm not sure how to do this easily in photoshop. So far i've come up with a workflow that fills my needs pretty well, except that it seems unnecessarily long and complicated:

1. Place the graphic on a transparent background

2. Use the magic wand to select transparent space, using the tolerance value to define the cutoff point

3. Select Refine Edge, and shift the contrast up to 100. For some reason if I don't do this, photoshop will often "partially select" a pixel, giving undesired results.

4. Hit delete. This removes all pixels that were selected (transparent enough to fall within the tolerance)

5. Select > Inverse. Shifts my selection to everything except what i just delete, ie the actual graphic.

6. Using the color picker, i pick an appropriate neutral color from the main body of the graphic. or i use black.

7. Using the pencil tool, with the draw mode set to Behind, and with a colossal radius, i draw on the graphic. This fills in all the remaining partially transparent pixels with the solid colour that i chose

This workflow does the job perfectly for me, and exactly achieves my intended results. but i can only do it on one layer at a time (i usually need to do this on about 18 layers, for a character graphic).

So what i'm looking for here, is some way to automate this process. The overall point of it really is forcing all pixels to "take a side", becoming either fully transparent, or fully opaque. Is there any better built in way to accomplish this? or a plugin? I'm open to commercial tools and plugins, even.

Probably relevant, I'm using photoshop CS5

CorelDRAW X5 :: Text Partially Disappears?

Dec 12, 2010

Since uprading to X5, virtually every file with text that I open has a problem.  All text (artistic or paragraph) is visible when selected with Pick Tool  but when Text Tool is selected, the text  "disappears" either partially or totally.  Very difficult to edit!  Invisible text areas can be highlighted but not seen.

On the same page, when editing different different blocks of text, some have become totally invisible, or, just at the bottom of a paragraph, or just as a strip down the right hand side of artistic text (almost as though a white box was placed over it).  Where there is a red underline, indicating a possible spelling mistake, the red line is still visible althought the text is not!

It is invisible in any Text Tool View - Enhanced - Wireframe etc.

Text reappears if I click on bottom middle handle (eg to flow to another paragraph) but as soon as released, it disappears again.

Ctrl W works rarely and only partially.  I have tried different basic fonts with exactly same results. (eg Arial, Times NR)

Select text with Pick tool and there is full text again.

In the nature of my business I hardly have a file without text in it!

Maya :: FBX Import Only Partially Visible

May 15, 2011

I would be able to export an FBX file from Revit directly into Maya (I work for an architecture firm and we exclusively use Maya), especially since none of us have 3ds Max... I am aware of materials and RPC conflicts and have tried every way I know how to to simply export basic architectural models so that they open in Maya (I'm fine with adding shaders in Maya)... So I've tried everything I know to modify the file but no matter what I do I seem to have this gray shade that blacks out the model if I try to zoom out (in Maya). I even downloaded a trial of 3ds to try it through there with no luck. Same problem... I can tell the model is there and complete but like I said, blackout whenever I rotate and zoom.

GIMP :: How To Fix Partially Faded Photo

Jun 1, 2013

I'm working on old vacation photos from the '70s (back when I could afford to take vacations). I'm now working on the first of what will probably be several that are faded, but not over the entire image - just parts of it.

I'm doing free selecting and playing with Levels, Curves, and Color Balance, but nothing seems to be working well. I think this is because some colors have faded more than others so there are areas that look purple when they should be brown or a mixture of colors.

Here's an example (which I hope will actually show):   

It's not a very interesting photo but it's from my very first trip to Europe so I'd kind of like to make it prettier.

AutoCad 3D :: Partially Rendering A Model?

May 29, 2012

As I'm in the final days of my master project the combination of boredom and stress has struck, resulting in me moving to 3d for the first serious time.

What I'm trying to model is a train station based on a 2d design drawing I have already made. Creating small models for objects is not too hard, but for some reason AutoCAD only seems to render a limited area of my drawing, as shown on the attached JPEG.

Restarting AutoCAD solves the problem for a single render, but after that the same issue appears again.

The dwg file can be downloaded from my dropbox

GIMP :: Partially Remove A Color?

Mar 25, 2012

Here's the picture: [URL]

What I want is to remove all the red stuff and text and be left only with the girl on a white background

I know how to remove all the stuff around the girl, because the background is white and that is simple (Select everything, replace with white, done).

My problem is with the huge "GE" over her hand, shoulder, and hair. How would I go about removing that red part and being left with a good-looking picture without the huge "GE"? I tried decomposing the (red) colors, selecting the red color and making it transparent, and many more things in the Colors drop-menu but I always ended up with some weird results far from what I have in mind. I also tried the Resynthesizer to smart fill but it filled with white

Put simply, is there a way to somewhat "pick" the colors that are "behind" the huge red GE and just remove the red component from them? I guess I could just delete the huge red GE and draw what's missing but I'm not so good at drawing and this picture is very well drawn and high quality and I know I couldn't match this.

AutoCad :: Block Only Partially Displays On Other PCs

Jun 19, 2013

I have changed our company template, the cable diagram on the left is displayed fine on the original template. It's also fine when I create a new paperspace in a drawing using the template.

However, when I send this to other people and they try and view the DWG on their computer the cable note within the box dissapears.....any clues people? CAD is so frustrating sometimes

I have PDF'd the template as I'm sure the cable note will be missing when you open the DWG.

Illustrator :: Graphic Only Partially Displayed

Jun 1, 2013

Using CS6 just installed on a Dell running Windows 7. I have placed a few EPS graphics and find that some of the image is not visible. I noted this a few weeks back on prior use on a different computer running a version of MacOS. A third at that time did display these image files completely. I believe that was CS4 but will check on Monday. I will test with other EPS files from other programs.

On the picture is only one pointcloud visible. If I click on it, it dont look like one, but it is really only one. And the disappearing areas are rectangles. The same problem is on floor plans.

GIMP :: Color History Box Partially Filled

Nov 16, 2013

I've noticed that when I use the color picker and then go to the color selection menu, sometimes the color shows up in the color history as only filling the upper left diagonal of the box and the lower right diagonal appears to be transparent.

why this happens and whether I can/should convert the color to filling the entire history box?

GIMP :: Select Partially Opaque Area

Jan 10, 2014

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?

Paint.NET :: Convert Picture To Partially Transparent

Apr 1, 2011

I've been working with Paint.NET for a while and it's got some great tools for creating images with transparent parts. what I'm looking for is some way to make a picture partially transparent.

So, say I've got a PNG of a tree. I want the tree to be 70% visible, so you can see outlines of things placed behind the tree. How do I do this? Using the magic marker to select the tree, and then telling it to make the tree partially transparent doesn't work since the part's that doesn't get transparent gets the secondary color as the 70% visibility, not the original, different shadings of the tree.

Illustrator :: How To Partially Recolor Stroke / Outline

Aug 13, 2012

I want to change the color of a stroked shape but only partially (see attached image):

 I tried using the Circle as  Clipping Mask for the red Rectangle. When using a Clipping Mask, the red rectangle is clipped to the Fill of the Object, not the Stroke as in Step 3. Is there a way to keep the Stroke and not Expand the Stroke into its own Shape so that I can later change the Stroke from 10 points to 20 points, while retaining the partial red coloring?
 
I also tried making two Stroked Circles on separate layers and coloring/clipping the top one but having two Strokes stacked creates jagged edges instead of a smooth vector look. The top Stroke never perfectly covers the Strokes below, regardless of Color Mode. For example dublicating the green Stroked Circle and changing its Color to red should make it disappear on the red background, but parts of the green Circle still show through:

Illustrator :: 3D Image Appears To Be Partially Transparent?

Aug 22, 2012

I've built a 3D cylinder shape in Illlustrator and have applied plastic shading. Looks OK in Illustrator, but when imported into InDesign or opened in Photoshop, it appears to be partially transparent AND what looked to be smooth shading in Illustrator appears as a strange pattern in PS and InD, etc.We're getting close to final and this will be printing as it's a logomark.Is there something I'm missing that would make this shape a solid shape (instead of appearring to be transparent) and reproduce well? I just want it to look in PS and InD (and on paper) the way it looks in Illustrator.
