How 2 have certain color in layer below make parts of layer above transparent
I have an opaque layer. The underlaying layer has green spots. I want those green spots to "shine through" the upper layer. How? In Photoshop there are blending modes, I haven't found anything similar in AE. I use AE CS5.
The blend modes in AE are just like the blending modes in Photoshop. I think you're looking for the Blend If layer style.
Or you might be looking for this:
The first can be brought into After Effects by importing a PSD as a composition with the Blending Options set in layer styles. It will show up under Layer Styles and can be copied and pasted to other layers. Unfortunately, you cannot make the blend adjustments in AE, you can only turn the effect on or off. The API's just don't exist that allow that to happen.
It looks like this in AE:
The second, Preserve underlying transparency is just a check box in the timeline. I use this feature all the time. You'll find the box between the blending modes and the track matte. There's a T at the head of the column. In a strange twist, this feature does not come into the timeline when you import a PSD as a composition, it must be turned on manually.
Hope this helps. I actually use both all the time.

Fcp to color how you have got color to work
Hi Guys I am having problems in getting the work flow with color to work and keep asking question on how to fix it , so i am thinking is there any body who would like to share how they got color to work and what setting you use, what formats ect. so we could get a list of working mac that every body can see. so please if you are up and running and your wrok flow works please tell me and all the other just how you have done it
ThanksHi Trevor,
welcome here!
Maybe your message tells us more about some frustrations you have been experiencing rather than the actual technical glithces you have encountered.
Therefore, I start with a very symple reply.
When I need Color to grade my video (usually DVCPRO HD) I simply go to file>send to>Color.
I colour grade, render and send it back to FCP.
Never had problems with that.
To use Color you may need (recommendable) dual core intel processor or higher, 4GB RAM or higher, X1900 graphics card, High Def. external monitor. An external or internal drive capable to let you edit on the fly.
I noticed that you are using Leopard.
Issues related to the new OS with FCPstudio2 are quite common and we are all taking notice of it.
Leopard was not specifically designed for FCP users so those and other issues were more or less predictable.
Hope this helps!

How can I apply color to black and make it accurate?
Hello,
I have an illustration that is black, white, and shades of gray. I want to apply a color to the black, and have all the grays become tints of that color. I have tried different blending modes and I have tried monotones, but I don't think either of these techniques are working. When I go back to check the color, it's a different color, and it prints looking different than the color I had selected.
Do you know how I can make this happen?May I suggest: Layer - New Adjustment Layer - Black & White, then use the Tint facility.
Personally, I often find it more handy (and providing more control) to use a Curves adjustment layer above all the others. Grab the curves of individual color channels and pull them this way and that to alter the color of what's underneath. It's not hard to keep whites white, blacks black, and give the stuff in between believable coloration.

How to have a colored dropdownlist
Hi All,
Is there any way to customize a dropdownlist?
For Example lets say I have a dropdownlist consisting of Direct Sale and Wholesale and I wish for Direct Sale to have a blue background and Wholesale to have a red background. So is there anyway I can tweak the following code to insert the color? Thanks in advance! =)
<h:selectOneMenu required="true" value="#{clientBean.businessType}">
<f:selectItem itemLabel="" itemValue=""/>
<f:selectItem itemLabel="WholeSale" itemValue="Wholesale"/>
<f:selectItem itemLabel="Direct Sale" itemValue="Direct Sale"/>
</h:selectOneMenu>Hi,
Write Expression language in contentStyle to do this and /use af_selectOneChoice instead selectOneMenu
See following will useful

BOXI 3.0 To have different color if bar graph
Hello BO experts.
Alias here. I have one question.
I have made Bar Charts-Vertical Grouped in BOXI Web Intelligence.
The graph is just shown one color for every bar eventhough the bar represent different categories.
How to have different color for each bar? Can we do that in BOXi webi?
Thank you very much.
Best regards,
AliasAlias, if you want to change the default color you can do it on grah properties (Appeareance/Data/Palette).
BO shows the same color for the same measure.
If you need different colors for each category you could create one variable for each category and include them in your graph.
Hope that helps.

Grep: How to fill a table cell with certain color
I have an excel sheet with 5000 rows that needs to be formatted in Indesign.
1. Is there a way to get a certain color fill of the cell depending on text. Lets say if the text is "apple", the cell should fill with red (and text also color red to make it disappear).
2. How do I make two different character styles to appear in the same cell (information is tab-separeted but sometimes I would like to have 2 "paragraphs" in one cell sometimes – with that I mean two tab-delimited cells from excel to appear in ONE cell in indesign).
Thanks in advance
Example of what I would like to accomplish: http://tinypic.com/r/vo4och/6Yes but wouldn't that make the field contain a string?
I tried something like that, and every field I edit becomes left-justified, and String (instead of int, float which is right-justified)

How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear. Help please!
As with the Mail app on a Mac, the iPhone's Mail app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which is separate from the address book or contacts. The email address autofill feature when addressing an message pulls from Contacts and from the list of previous recipients.
Different from the Mail app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients with iOS on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to the address book or contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
The only way to purge the list of previous recipients at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, which will start being re-populated again with every sent message. -

How to do a SUM of all cells of a certain color?
I have a spreadsheet that I'm categorizing certain budget items by cell color. these are not in a row. I think there is a way with IF statements to select all the cells of a certain color that contain numbers and do a sum of them. This will allow for easy graphs of those categories.
Nathan Cowger wrote:
What do you mean by:
The workaround is to use the property which categorize the cells in your formula.
What Badunit said, plus what to do if you're not using a conditional rule to colour the cells.
If you're using a conditional rule to set the colour of the cell. use that condition in a SUMIF() statement to select the numbers to be included in the sum.
If you're setting the colours manually, use a checkbox in an adjacent column to set the condition for numbers to be included in the SUMIF() selection.

How do I prevent color streaking outside of an adjustment layer?
When I load a selection and create and adjustment layer, the hue and saturation effects areas outside the layer. You can see the red streaking below. How do I avoid this?
My work flow is to select the object with one of the selection tools, then place the object on its own layer (CTRL+J)

Next, group the top two Layers (CTRL+G), so that the adjustment is confined -

Hit command tab and swtich to the Finder, under the Apple menu is Force Quit, do that to the program that is causing your "hang" and restart the program and what you were doing.
If you didn't save your file beforehand, then your going to have to make it again. -
