How to put gradient effect on a 45 degree curved pipe using single object

how to put gradient effect on a 45 degree curved pipe using single object

Sudhanshu,
You may use a smooth blend between a dark/black solid fill object with the full width and a white narrow fill object in the middle.
Yoy may:
1) Create the full width object with the bend, remember to have two anchor points at the inner corner, on top of each other if it is to be sharp; you may create it with a surplus length, see below;
2) With 1) selected, Object>Path>Offset Path by a negative value equalling half the width less a point or so, to create the inner fill path, then turn it white;
3) You may ClickDrag across each end of the paths with the Line Segment Tool, then Object>Path>Divide Objects Below and delete the unwanted end parts;
4) Object>Blend>Objects, use Smooth and Align to Path;
5) Object>Blend>Make.

  • How to put gradient style table cell in a table?

    Hey, I am making a custom table cell right now but my custom cell is just white cell with some buttons and labels in background color which looks not that great.
    Is there a way to render the background color so that the cell has some vertical gradient effect?
    For example, on top of the cell it looks white and as it gets closer to center of the cell, it gets darker.
    But as it gets closer to the bottom of the cell, it gets whiter again.
    A great example would be this free app called "friendsaroundme".
    Another thing is that I don't want to use custom image to do it (i.e make the cell.backgroundcolor = [uicolor colorwithpatternimage:somethingsomething.png..... ) because it's not that flexible.
    So is there anyway to render the gradient style programatically?

    Congrats on answering your question, David! I'm sure many of the developers here would like to see your solution, so I hope you'll post it when you have the time. - Ray

  • How to apply gradient effect to JTable

    Hi
    It is easier to apply gradient effect to JTable by overriding paintComponent() and giving gradient effect using the following code
    Graphics2D g2 = gradientImage.createGraphics();
    GradientPaint painter = new GradientPaint(0, 0, gradientEnd,
    0, height, gradientStart);
    g2.setPaint(painter);
    Rectangle2D rect = new Rectangle2D.Double(0, 0, width, height);
    g2.fill(rect);
    but my problem is , after applying gradient effect the cell contents are not visible.
    what i need to do to make the cells visible..... please any one help me to sort out this.....
    Thanks in advance.......

    Well the basic code should be:
    // do gradient painting
    super.paintComponent(...);But you will also need to customize the renderers to make them non-opaque.
    And you may also need to make the table non-opaque.
    If you need further help then you need to create a [Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable, Example Program (SSCCE)|http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html], that demonstrates the incorrect behaviour.
    Don't forget to use the Code Formatting Tags so the posted code retains its original formatting. That is done by selecting the code and then clicking on the "Code" button above the question input area.

  • How to put the display to sleep in Mac OS Lion using keychain?

    I use to be able to turn off my displays by hitting "lock screen" in keychain access in Snow Leopard. Now, when I hit it in Lion, it goes to screen saver. It was great being able to turn off the display at night, before going to bed.
    Anyone know a work around WITHOUT going to System Preferences -> Desktop & Screen Saver -> Screen Saver -> Hot Corners... -> Pick a corner -> Select "Put Display to Sleep"? I do not want to use hot corners.
    I want to lock computer using keychain and the displays go to sleep.
    Hopely someone knows of some plist that can be written to-to put the display to sleep.

    Really? Want to show me that button or setting that allows that? AFAIK, System Preferences->Security->General->is where you set that when the machine sleeps or screensaver activates. Accordingly, I'm only aware of a hot corner triggering those two options and the behavior remains the same in Lion, even though the prefPane's name is slightly changed.

  • I just purchased a i mac and i wanted to know if anyone knows how to put music in my mp3. do i have to use iTunes or how do i go about it?

    can anyone help me here im soooo lsot i dont know what to do

    Many generic mp3 players come with a usb style charger/cable.  If yours does try connecting the cable to one of the Mac's usb ports and the other end to your player.  If it has the appropriate plug 'n play firmware it will appear as a drive icon on the desktop.  Browse the player looking for a folder named "music" or something similar.  Try dragging some tracks from iTunes and dropping them into this folder.  Eject the drive icon (right or control click and select eject).  Unplug the player and check for success.

  • I recently updated by iphone 4s but can't figure out how to put icons on the desktop as short cuts to my games.

    I recently updated my iphone 4s but can't figure out how to put my game icons on the front page to use as shortcuts to my games. Anyone know?

    Dear Friend ,
    Can you please be more clear by mentioning what do you mean by shortcuts to the games ?
    Still Here is what it takes you to get what you want .
    Firstly , your iPhone by default comes with preset of 16-18 Apps in your Homescreen (including Dock)
    Make sure your apps are installed either directly from the app store in your phone or through iTunes in your Mac or PC
    once they are installed you can notice them by swiping the homescreens.
    Long press the app icon , you can notice they all would be in "jiggle" mode
    Drag them and place them in your home screen

  • How can i execute multiple database operations using multiple objects

    i have data in files which i need to read/parse and insert/update the database. can someone tell me how can i read multiple statements at a time and process using multiple objects.

    This doesn't seem like too much of a JDBC question or at least the answer as I see it isn't unique or specific to JDBC.
    If you want to run multiple processes within your single program then you need to use Java threads. I would recommend you read up on how to properly code Java threads and if you have questions unique to your multi-threaded JDBC implementation come back and ask those questions.
    You may also want tot take advantage of a transaction manager that includes a database connection pool that will handle most of the complexity for you. Depending on the flexibility of your architecture you may not have to do any thread coding at all when using a transaction manager.

  • I need to know how to put a photo in a box with text under photo, so they all will move in page

    I need to know how to put a photo in a box with text under it, so they move together in a page of text.

    The Acrobat SDK might be a starting point.
    From there, perhaps a plug-in (built with C+).
    Perhaps with a licensed release of a PDF Library (this could be $$).
    The viable and cost effective alternative is use the tried and true.
    Authoring in an appropriate authoring application with appropriate tag management.
    Example:  Adobe InDesign; Adobe FrameMaker or MS Word with PDFMaker (comes with install of Acrobat).
    This way you place "Alternative Text" when mastering content in the authoring file.
    Going the route and with some look-see (research) you may find programmatic approaches to placing the alt txt in the authoring file.
    Note: as discussed in the Matterhorn Protocols there is no programmatic method that provides a fully accessible PDF (specifically, that is an ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant PDF).
    Regardless, here you have a sub-forum for discussions on Acrobat usage.
    Consequently discussions on/of 3rd party software is rather out of scope eh.
    Be well...

  • How to put flash as a table or cell background or put HTML elements on top of flash file?

    Hi Guys,
    Could anyone please suggest me that how to put flash file as a table or cell background. I want to design a website and want to put HTML elements like table, images, text on top of flash file. so its look like animation in background. please visit following websites for an example: http://www.gagudju-dreaming.com/ and http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/
    Please guide me ASAP, thanks a lot in advance.
    Nitz.

    Hi Nitz
    The first thing you must do is convert your layout from table based to css based, (tables are o/k for tabular data, but not layout) but if you have never used css for layout it may be a steep learning curve.
    My recommendation is to start with the following tutorial on converting a table based comp to a css layout -
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/dw_fw_css_pt1.html
    More info on using css is available here - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/css.html.
    Once you have converted your site the 'procedure' for using swf's as a background, (does not work well with flv's, but can be done using html5 video without a skin, to a limited extent) is the same as having a background-image resize automatically to the full browser view-port. The best way to learn how to do this is to view the code on a page using the background-image technique, view the code on this page - http://www.pziecina.com/indexold.php.
    However, instead of having a fluid layout I would recommend using a fixed layout size to start with, as this overcomes many problems. I have uploaded a basic test page to illustrate the idea to - http://www.pziecina.com/test_ideas/swfbg_test.html. As I said the page must be resized in this example in order to see the effect, (so do not forget to resize the browser, even if it is only by 1px), but if you use a fixed size layout and your swf's size fits the desired area correctly the resize should not be required.
