Darken, Color Burn, Multiply?

Hi, I have looked everywhere and can’t find an answer to this. I am using Flash CS5 and I need to apply a “Transparency mode like: “Darken, Screen Multiply Color Burn, like in Photoshop to an imported image. Is this possible in Flash CS5 and how would I do it as I don’t see any options for it.

Glad it can be done. I converted my image to a “Graphic Symbol” instead of MC that’s why I couldn’t see the options. Thanks.
Only too bad there is no option for “Color Burn” guess I will have to use “Subtract" instead.

  • 'Darken' behaves like 'Multiply' in CMYK mode

    In RGB documents, the 'Darken' transparency blend mode doesn't change colours, but only shows a colour if it is darker that the colour underneath it.
    In CMYK documents, 'Darken' acts differently. It does the same thing as 'Multiply': it darkens the top colour based on the colour underneath. In CMYK mode, 'Darken' and 'Multiply' seem to do exactly the same thing.
    How can I get an object in a CMYK document to do what 'Darken' does in an RGB document - only show if it has a darker value than the colour underneath?
    (side question: why does 'Darken' behave like 'Multiply' in CMYK mode? What's the point of having two different blend modes that do the same thing?)
    Here's Adobe's official description of Darken. This matches how it behaves in RGB, but not how it behaves in CMYK:
    Darken
    Selects the base or blend color—whichever is darker—as the resulting color. Areas lighter than the blend color are replaced. Areas darker than the blend color do not change.

    Okay, so these two shapes (white stroke, solid fill) with 'Darken' blend mode look like this in RGB mode, which matches the description and expectations:
    ...but they look like this with 'Darken' blend mode when we switch to CMYK.
    Looking at it more closely, it seems like it might be something to do with the different seperations: in the RGB example the overlap area isn't exactly the same as the normal blue as I thought it was at first.
    It's also not always exactly the same as multiply as it was the first couple of times I tested: multiply seems to often blend darker.
    So is there anything that simply only shows the darker of the colours?

  • Color Burn inverts color!! Not working!!

    Hello! I have recently started to work with different VFX for example man getting shot and blood comes out.
    I have action essentials and when i add the blood and put color burn on the black background is still there and a different color appears on the blood itself in the middle!
    This is really frustrating and it keeps me from finishing my project. Thanks

    Why would you use Color Burn on a black background? This isn't even a specific issue with Action Essentials, you simply lack a basic understanding of how blending modes work and when to use which. Sorry, but you really need to start at the beginning:

  • Blending with Color Burn not working

    I have an image in which I simply duplicated the background layer and changed the Blending Mode to Color Burn and it creates a very dark and dramatic result which I love. However, when I save it back to Lightroom (or anywhere else it turns out) as a TIFF, JPG, or PSD it always looks considerably lighter and loses the look. I thought i read somewhere about this blending mode using "transparent pixels (I don't even know what that means) and am wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem...
    Thanks all!

    We can't know. We don't know the exact settings you used in the timeline nor any other details like what version of AE, what system and so on, since you haven't bothered to provide them. From your shapes not being properly pre-composed to issues with 3D render order and collapsed transformations there could be anything going on. We simply don't know based on your insufficient info.

  • What is color burn layer?

    I was reading one of techniques for removing blue haze from pictures.
    The initial two steps were as follows:
    1. Click on your color burn layer
    2. Select all and copy the color burn layer only to the clipboard
    I have never used "color burn layer".  So I have no idea what "color burn layer" is and how to create it.
    Please asvise me how to creaste color burn layer.
    I have photoshop CS5 (with Windows 7).

    It is not a tutorial.   Somebody asked the question in a photo forum. 
    I now lost the original webpage but I copied the anwer as follows:
    Click on your color burn layer
    Select all and copy the color burn layer only to the
    clipboard
    Open a Hue/saturation adjustment layer but make no corrections just press OK.
    Alt click on the Hue/adjustment layers mask this will make the screen go white.
    Edit> paste... this will paste the color burn layer to the mask.
    We must reverse the mask now so press Ctrl+I or Image>Adjustment>Inverse
    Click on the adjustment part of the hue/saturation or Alt click on the mask again.
    Now reduce saturation by moving the saturation slider to the left.
    My question is how to careate color burn layer in CS5 photoshop.

  • Color burns on ipad 3?

    Anyone else heard of an ipad 3 coming out of the box with color burns on it? I'm a little displeased with apple at the moment.
    There are a few small areas on the screen that have a red hue, almost like when you'd put a magnet to an old tube tv. I litteraly just opened the box as it was a gift. I'm assuming this is a permenant problem and ill have to exchange it tomorrow, but if I can avoid that it would be nice. I've already had my iphone 5 serviced once and then ultimately replaced since I bought it, so as you can imagine I'm getting sick of the going to apple for repairs on new products.
    "Steve's not around? Sweet! Now we can half *** everything and rush it out the door..."

    This is happening because you don't have a network connection. You may have Wifi turned on, but check the Network that you have joined. Is it valid? The reason I ask is because I had the same issue this morning. I finally realized that the network that my iPhone had picked up was not a valid Wifi network, so I wasn't really on the internet.
    Are you seeing the Wifi icon on the top of the screen?

  • 3D effect with color burn not rendering out.Please help.

    Hello,
    I am rendering out a 3D effect using an adjustment layer with stroked lines. I have the transfer mode on these lines set to "classic color burn" because it's the look that I want. However when I render the effect out, the lines are almost invisible in the final render. I also have some lights in the scene and am using 3D element with a 3D object. Could the lights be causing a problem? I will attach a photo of the scene before and after render. Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Replace colors on multiply layer with predefined color

    Hello,
    This is my first time here and I've tried to find an answer to my question but haven't been able to. Maybe someone can help me whith this.
    My process:
    I scann my artwork (linedrawing)
    I color my artwork with multiply mode on different layers (as i'm sure many do)
    Now what I haven't been able to figure out is how to replace the color on this multiply layer with a predefined color from my colorswatch.
    I've found tutorials on how you can change colour  around by using hue/saturation and stuff like that but I have a predefined colorpalette. So I just want to replace a certain color blue I always work with, for a specific color green from my palette.
    I've used the replace brush tool but the colors that appear are a blend of the first color and the second color I use.
    So my solution so far has been to set up a new layer and color again. I'm hoping there is an easier way.
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
    Kind regards,
    Lineke from Amsterdam

    You could have a Color Fill layer for each color selected from your Swatches, with the blending mode set to Multiply, and the layer mask filled with black. Then, paint on the mask with white to do your coloring.

  • Burning multiply copies of dvd?

    I just finished burning my movie in idvd and I was wondering is it possible to make multiply copies of the dvd in idvd? or do I have to make copies from the file in idvd? Thanks!

    Yes, you can make multiple DVD's without having to go through the lengthy encoding process for each one.
    Save your iDVD project as a Disk Image (an option from the File menu). This will take awhile because all the encoding is done just as if you were burning a DVD. Once it done, and you have a Disk Image, you can burn as many DVD's off of that as you want without having to do the encoding again.
    The way you do that is by opening the Applications/Utilities/Disk Utility window on your Mac. Drag your disk image icon into the pane on the left side of the window, if its not already there. Select the disk image icon in the pane, and then hit the Burn button in the upper left. Your Mac will prompt you to insert a DVD-R disk. Insert it and hit Close. After a few seconds, the burn button in the little drop down box will illuminate to blue. Click on it and wait while your DVD is being burned. It should take about 1/10 the time as burning the original disk image, because all of the encoding already has been done. You can burn a few disks this way and then shut down if you want and come back the next day. Open Disk Utility and start burning more disks without having to encode.
    There are some nice things about disk images. First, they are stand alone and can be saved or stored independently of any of the other assets or media in your project. Secondly, they take up much less disk space than than the iMovie project itself or an archive of the iDVD project. Thirdly, you can burn at 4x or lower speed, whereas burning directly for iDVD will not let you adjust your burn speed. Fourthly, you can play back your Disk Image using the DVD player on your Mac. (Double click on your Disk Image icon, then click on DVD Player in your Applications folder.) The play back will look exactly like the play back you get from the DVD you burn.

  • Missing and bad colors burning to DVD

    I'm a newbie to IDVD and tried burning my first project - a 4 minute slideshow from IMovieHD, with Ken Burns effects, no transitions, one fade-out and music.
    I exported from IMovie to IDVD , best quality, NTSC, burned the disc, and it ran fine, music great, but everything was tinged green, missing reds totally.
    Everything looked perfect in IDVD Preview. Used Verbatim -R DVDs. Any helpful hints out there?
    Thanks,
    -Woody

    Hi, Woody,
    everything was tinged green, missing reds totally.
    Wow! That is different! Since you cannot depend on Preview to catch all errors, try to save your project to disc image. Edit->Save as disc image. See this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=164927
    If it saves fine, view it using DVD player to see if you still get the color distortion. Follow Len Goff's instructions here: Len Goff, "G4 won't recognize DVD-R" #2, 12:53am Oct 14, 2005 CDT
    If the color is still off, then it is an application problem. If not, it is a media problem. Verbatim is supposed to be the best, but maybe you got one from a rare bad batch.
    If it is the media, try a different brand. See this thread for suggestions: http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?7@@.68b79e4d/5
    Then, burn the disc image to DVD. See this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93006
    Good luck!

  • Burn Tool Color

    With the burn tool one can use it several ways.  The direct way is to just click on the tool and select whether you want highlights, mid-tones, or shadows.  Each option changes the burn shade slightly.  Also there are a host of blend modes which again changes the burn shade.
    One can also create a burn layer and change blend modes, all with different effects.  Then you can also use the brush tool and select color burn or color dodge, with the foreground color changing the shade of the burn.
    So all of these options give a great deal of control, but frankly I am just burned out on the process.
    All I want is to have the burn deepen the color to more closely match the color in the shadows of the picture.  It seems to work better on flesh and soft colors than on bright colors.  In those cases I give up and resort to a brush in normal mode with color selected by eyedropper.  But that can make the image more muddy as it covers up rather than intensify.
    So wilh all the man-years of experience out there is there a more simple way to get the correct burn shade than going though 49 different variations?  Or should I just stick with the brush and use a different blend mode?

    I never interpreted the Highlights / Midtones / Shadows setting to control "shade" so much as whether it affect the bright tones, medium tones, or dark tones more.  I guess I normally consider "shade" to have something to do  with changing color.  Perhaps "shade" in the context of your usage is what I'm describing.  But if it isn't, perhaps a misunderstanding of what the tool does is part of the issue.
    By the way, I fully accept that my own definition of "shade" may be flawed.
    I find the Burn tool to have a LOT of uses, and I usually tend to edit the pixels directly (rather than doing a bunch of layer combinations) but I don't think I understand your question well enough to offer particularly specific advice... 
    One thing I CAN say is that I always try to work very conservatively with the Burn and Dodge tools and gradually build up to I'm trying to accomplish, usually using soft brushes.
    Can you post an example of a troublesome image?
    By the way, another whole approach that I've used sometimes is to make a duplicate layer and hide it, then go back to the layer below and do global adjustments on it - e.g., Curves and Hue/Sat - so that the parts you're trying to "rescue" look good, then make the upper layer visible again and either mask or erase on it (again, using subtle strokes) to reveal the better looking stuff underneath.  You're still "painting on" the fix this way, but your destination is preset in this case.

  • Photoshop 6 and the change in Color Dodge/Burn blend modes

    Photoshop 6 introduced a few changes in blending modes. Here´s a tip on how to save those older PSD´s, and continue with the Color Dodge/Burn behaviour you are used to:
    Courtesy of Mark Hamburg, verified and posted by Chad Baker:
    To create a new Color Dodge/Burn layer that will work like the old ones used to, simply Option (Alt) click the New Layer icon and select Color Dodge/Burn as your mode, then check the box to fill your new layer with a neutral color (black for Color Dodge and Difference, white for Color Burn).
    To fix an existing Color Dodge/Burn layer (from one of your 5.5 files for example) that has 100% layer opacity, simply bring up the fill dialog with that layer selected, then fill the layer in 'Behind' mode with black.
    To fix an existing Color Dodge/Burn layer that has an opacity of other than 100% it's a little trickier, but not much. The process is the same as above, but you must perform a quick trick first. Select the layer, then go to Layer>Layer Style>Blending Options. What you need to do is change the Advanced blending opacity to whatever your General blending opacity is, then move the general opacity up to 100%. Now all you have to do is what you did before, fill the layer in 'Behind' mode with black.

  • Why no lighten/darken blending modes in Lab?

    With PS CS, I have noticed in Lab color space the lighten and darken blending modes for layers are disable. Also, if an RGB picture uses them, they are converted to normal blending mode upon conversion to Lab. Any idea why this limitation? And any way to circumvent it?

    This is true also for the Color Dodge, Color Burn, Difference, and Exclusion blend modes in CS3. (I don't remember if all of these modes exist in CS.) The only way to circumvent the mode conversion when switching from RGB to LAB seems to be flattening beforehand---not likely to be a happy solution for you.

  • A nice way to darken colours

    While experimenting with creating my own "Pencil Sketch" effect, I happened to discover this effect -- it's a nice way to darken colours and increase their contrast and saturation without getting the "candy colour" effect that the Hue/Saturation filter can cause.
    My apologies if this technique is well-known.  You veterans can post this on your refrigerator for times when you need a good laugh!
    Here's the original:
    If a Hue/Saturation layer is used to boost the colours, even with modifying it by using an additional Brightness/Contrast layer:
    the colours can look a little too "sweet":
    Here's what I found:
    Duplicate the Background layer.
    On that Background Copy layer, use Filter...Other...HighPass with these settings:
    Change the blend mode of the highpass layer to "Color Burn" and reduce its opacity to about 45%:
    The result is kind of nice:
    Enjoy!
    Ken

    Just did a comparison between this method and using a Levels adjustment.  This HighPass method has a subtle difference -- a more neutral colour effect, as well as a better separation of values (as in the water):
