I just bought Xara Photo & Graphic Designer MX 2013 and I find the black UI quite hard to work in.Is there a way to switch back to the white GUI that I used to have in Xare Xtreme 5 ?
I have just purchased this upgrade software having used XARA Xtreme4.0 for many years.How can I change the black background screen with white writing to grey with black writing?
I have a multilayered psd file. All layers should remain opaque except the black to white gradient layer where I need the white to be transparent. So that when I place the final psd on top of a block of solid colour in Indesign the gradient shows the background colour through where the black fades off.
First time user. Is there a Xara product that allows reversing black and white and/or colors in text and/or graphics? Which product(s) will do this? Also, rank beginner question number two: How are tags used?
I created an ad in color but might possibly be required to provide it in black and white also. However, The file contains an image that's in color. So I need to know if there is an option to print the file to PDF in black and white? I tried changed the settings many times to no avail. I'm using DP7.
Designer Pro 6: I've made round cornered pix for a catalog. I export as a PNG and the corners show black in the Web app I'm using, but they are transparent so it's OK. The last set of pix were done in Xara Xtreme 5, when I exported those as PNGs the corners were white, and the transparency was OK. My question is why the white or black corners, and is there something I can do that will control that? I used the same approach in Designer as in Xtreme 5.
I took this photo which was OK but not great, and set the saturation to -100, and worked on the contrast and levels until the sky was very dark. Then I cloned the photo and applied a Linear, Stained Glass transparency to make the sky even darker.
The effect in black and white is so much more dramatic than it is in color.
I had an advertisement that I created in Graphic Designer 6 that is going to run in a paper as black and white. Does Xara GD6 have the ability to export as a B&W or a grayscale image? Or will I need to manually alter all of the colors of the ad and then export it?
1) convert the new digital image into an black and white one with that special look (is it the contrast, that makes that special b/w-look?) 2) make it look like disturbed or cracked, cut u and incomplete around the corners, a look, that must be the result of that old technique they have used for the photos at that time.
Is it possible to recreate that look for images, done with a digital camera today?(I have added a example image of an "old west show" I did, that is one of the images I would like to manipulate)
I think I can acomplish this with the gradient tool but it isn't cooperating. Basically, I've got a simple design of two men standing against a wall, and they are both traced in black. I am looking to flip flop the colors by making the background black and the traced men to be white vice versa.
I have color pictures in TIFF and I need to change them to black and white pictures in order to be published in a scientific journal. My question is which is the best way to do that? Another thing that I have to do is make figures (which include pictures and graphs) I'm plainnig to prepare them in Illustrator and Photoshop, then I have to send those figures in a TIFF format with at least 300 dpi, any tip for that?
about black to white color changes and vice versa. I have a client that will often ask for this and i know its a pain in the butt but i have to do it. is there any layer styles i should be using or is it just a matter of levels, curves, brightness, untill you get it right.
What I am trying to do is change a photo of a bright red abd dark black car to a white car.
In all cases what I seem to be running into is the fact that the programs use the existing colour as the start point and allow only so much variation from that colour (ie about 180 +/- in each primary colour) which does not get me to where |I need to be.
I also tried creating a new layer and filling it with the desired colour then changing the layer from normal to hue. The result ends up being a mix of the original colour and the new colour so for instance if I want a yellow over a blue original colour I end up with some variation of green.
I have an image that is black and white, and I want to color parts of it with a brush. However, when I try to change the color, it won't change -- it just changes to a different shade of grey! What can I do?
Is there any way to change the general overall appearance of PRO X4 from black to white? I have visual problems and find it difficult to see the colors against a black background. I have looked at the preferences section and can not see where I can do this.
I have a clipart picture, which has varying shades of black and white. How do I change the image to pink? I would like to keep the shading. Its a very intricate image of a crown.
I have a Black and White text logo which I want to invert/reverse the colours on. Yes it's that simple, but I can't get paint.net to do it. In the attached file, I need Black to be White, and vice-versa. Anything else needs to be left as it is.
How to change black and white hand-prints into color for some art work for my kids. I am already able to switch between black and white between the foreground and background, but not able to change all of the black "color" to a different color including all the minor lines on the hand and foot prints.
