How to make a transparent object fully opaque while keeping the same color appearance?

for a single object in a document.
I will greatly appreciate your help.

Flatten transparency on a copy and take the color with the eyedropper? Any better way?

  • How to transform a layer object and a path at the same time?

    Hi all,
    I know I am going to kick myself when you tell me the answer to this!
    I would really like to know if there is any way I can manage to to transform both a layer object and a path at the same time....or if there is any workaround to achieve this.
    In a nutshell, say for example I spend a VERY long time creating an intricate path around a very detailed object, and then at the very end notice just how crooked and out of perspective it is, and would like to straighten it.
    Of course I could transform and correct the object, and then carefully transform the path - but it just won't be exact, and I will have to spend a long time adjusting the path and making SURE it is perfect.
    Isn't there any way I could get to transform them together?
    Usually of course I do all the correction to straighten and correct perspective beforehand, but in some instances after I am done creating the path I then notice that the image could have used further adjustments.
    I appreciate so very much any advice you may have:)
    Thank you kindly,
    Christine

    Okay...I found another way as well... suddenly it all started coming to me in the last few minutes:)
    Once the image is on it's own layer, then we can select the path and then make a vector mask by going to "Layer>Vector Mask>Current Path". Once the vector mask is created, simply click on the image icon on it's layer, then transform away to your heart's content, and the path is transformed along with it. Once finished, the path for the vector mask can be saved as usual. (Don't click on the vector mask icon when transforming the image, otherwise only the path will be transformed.)

  • How to make two PCs (one local, one remote) control the same running vi at the same time?

    Hi Labviewers,
    I have a vi running, and two PCs are monitoring it, one is local and another one is remote.
    I can see the remote front panel at the remote machine by using application property node, but it seems only one of the two PCs has the control of the running VI at the same time.
    Is there any way to make the two PCs both have the control of the same vi at the same time?  Switching back and forth the control between two PCs is really annoying.
    Thanks a lot for any help.
    Anne

    What exactly are you trying to control?
    Perhaps another approach? You could use "Shared Variables" from LV 8.0 and have a copy of the writer VI on each of the control PCs edit the value on the host PC. But as soon as I post, someone is going to talk about multiple writers to shared resources being a bad idea.... so just be careful or you may try to edit a value that has already been changed.

  • How to make layers transparant so that they shine through the layers above it?

    Well, the topic question kind of nails it; i'm wondering if it is possible to get layers which are 'lower' situated to shine through 'higher' situated layers. I'm no good at photoshop and i find fireworks a much easier program to use to edit my images. Im trying to place different drawings of mine over each other but i would really like it if they shine through one-another. Can anybody help me this? I did find an option in the top of the layer screen with which i can get this shine-through effect but it alters the colour a lot. Is there way to get this shine-through without the colour alternation?
    P.s i'm usin cs 4.
    Thanks in advance!

    I often have to prototype a dialog pop-up over the page making the rest of the page low-contrast & blury.  To do this I place a layer above what I want to blur out.  In that "blur" layer I put a light gray rectangle that covers the entire page.  To the rectangle I added a Filter > Blur > Guassian Blur set at  4.1.  In the layer I set the opacity at 70%.  See if that does what you want.

  • Making a component half way transparent(not fully opaque or nuopaque)

    Is it possible to make a component (frame, panel etc) half way transparent, I know that its possible to make it fully transparent but i would like to know of a way to go half way, thanks.

    I saw something recently about making a JFrame transparent in another question. You need to use a third party package. Sorry, I don't remember the posting. If you try searching the forum you might find it again. You can use my id as one of the keywords.
    Otherwise for JComponents you need to do three things:
    a) make the component non-opaque
    b) set the background color of the component using a Color object that has an "alpha" value specified.
    c) however you can't just set the background since it won't automatically be painted, so you need to override the paintComponent() method of the component to paint the background yourself. Something like:
    g.setColor(getBackground());
    g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
    super.paintComponent(g);Or instead of using a background with an alpha value I think you can use something like this to paint the background:
    Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
    AlphaComposite ac = AlphaComposite.getInstance(AlphaComposite.SRC_OVER, alpha);
    g2.setComposite(ac);
    g2.setPaint(getBackground());
    g2.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());Don't know which approach is better.

    Hi Baba,
    Below are some step-by-step instructions that show you how to acheive this effect very easily with the Quick Selection Tool and a Black & White Adjustment Layer.
    1. Open up your image in Photoshop. In the toolbar, click on the Quick Selection Tool and select your subject.
    2. Go to Select > Refine Edge and use the dialog box to clean up your selection - I've enabled the Smart Radius option and increased the selection radius. When you're done, click OK.
    3. Go to Select > Inverse.
    4. Locate the Adjustments panel - by default, it should be located above the Layers panel (in CS6), but if you can't find it, go to Window > Adjustments. Click on the Black & White adjustment icon, as shown below. Your subject will stay in color, but the setting should turn black and white, as you can see below.
    For more on using Adjustment Layers, below is a quick video that goes over the basics:
    If you have further questions, feel free to post a reply!

  • How to make it sound as if it is in the next room.

    I am new to the audio editing/mixing.
    I am curious how to make dialog sound as if it is happening in the next room.
    I vaguely remember a setting that was doing something like it and it was actually called similarly (In the next room), but now I can't find it.
    If it doesn't exist and it was one of those borscht induced nightmares, how one would approach this anyway?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    In the effects rack, there are several "room" settings you can apply, and tweak the parameters to make it sound as if it's in the same room or next door.

  • How to make JScrollpane not to fetch data while scrollbar is adjusting?

    how to make JScrollpane not to fetch data while scrollbar is adjusting?
    Hi,
    I need to make the jscrollpane get data only when the scrollbar stops scrolling.
    for instance if I hold the scrollbar's thumb and drag it to pass 1000 records, I want the view to wait until I release the thumb before taking any action( ex. adjust the view). in other words if the value of getValueIsAdjusting() of scrollbar is true, then the jscrollpsne should wait until it changes to false before doing anything. this is the same approach that Outlook takes when browsing through the list of emails in your mailbox.
    I don't know how to solve this issue. any help regarding this issue would be appreciated.
    thanks

  • I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    I have two accounts to my computer as administrator. How can I make it so both accounts have access to the same folders and programs? grateful for answers. Martin

    Obvious question: If you want to have access to the same folders andapplications, why have two accounts? The point of different accounts is that you don't have access to the other person's data.
    Any application in the HD/Applications folder is available in all accounts.
    Sharing data between accounts depends on the material being shared. So, if you can provide more details we maybe able to help you better.

  • How to make a common parameter for two subreports in the main report.

    Hi,
    I have a crystal report which has 2 subreports in it. Both the subreports have the same code and I need to create a parameter for Project Cost in both the subreports for filtering the data.
    When i create the same parameter in both the subreports, i see two parameters with same name on my prompt page while refreshing the report. however I just want 1 parameter on my prompt page and data should get filtered in both the reports.
    Can anyone please suggest something, How can I do that? is there a way for sharing same parameter between two subreports?
    Thanks!
    Neha.

    hi Neha,
    here's how to do this:
    1) create a new parameter with the same name on the main report
    2) right click on your first subreport and choose Change Subreport Links
    3) in the Field to Link To list drag over your new main report parameter
    4) open the Subreport Parameter Field to Use select menu and choose your subreport parameter
    5) repeat steps for the 2nd subreport
    now you'll only get prompted once.
    cheers,

  • How can I match a color on photoshop to a real car paint color so when printed they will be the same color?

    I want my text to be the same color as a particular car. Is there a way to use the cars paint code for this?

    Depends on where the colour comes from.  The range that printers use are from the Pantone chart, and you can convert those colours to CMYK or RGB values.  Without that sort of reference, I'm not sure it can be done.  If you have a fully calibrated system, then you could scan the maker's chart and sample it, but I don't know how accurate that would be.
    Pantone colors. Convert Pantone colors to RAL, CMYK, RGB, Hex, HSL, HSB, JSON
    How did you hope to use the information? The vehicle below is painted with just one colour, but you'd be hard pressed to get an RGB value because it looks so different depending on the angle.

  • How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?

    OK...this is a probably a very basic question but I'm not sure how to word it clearly.
    How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project? What I mean is that I have a bout 50 minutes of video and I want to make two DVDs using different clips from this original 50 minutes of footage. It would be a real pain to have to re-import the video AGAIN for the second DVD. I suppose I could drop anything I don't want to burn to DVD back into the clips pane but that would wipe out all my transitions wouldn't it? I want to save each project in their “raw” form so I can burn additional DVDs later otherwise I would just do them one at a time and not care about one of them being destroyed.
    Wow...that was a mess. Does anyone understand what the heck I’m asking? I hope so.

    How can I create multiple versions of a video within the same project?
    You can't. You make separate projects using the same or different clips, segments, transitions, titles, etc. You can even duplicate the first project and then modify/make the desired changes in the duplicated project. Each project can then be burned as a different DVD or as different titles on the same DVD if there is enough room.
