When I add a black gradient in a layer mask it only appears white, how do I change the colour?

When adding a layer mask to an image to add mulitple gradients, when I add a gradient with the colour set (black) and draw it onto the image it appears white or npothing appears at all. I have tried removing all white from the gradient colour palette and trying various different colour combinations but white is the only colour that seems to want to appear as a gradient.
If someone could help with this is would be extremely grateful.
Thanks

As you can see, within the original image I have created a gradient overlay. This blends the two imags together. But the two midle images can only have one gradeint. I want another gradient on the image and to do this I have used a layer mask. I have been taught that you can add another gradient to the layer by doing this. It works however it just appears white. I have tried various different gradients that are available including 'Black,White'. Although its functioning correctly....
...it is apperaing white instead of black.
Does this make things easier to understand?

    You have to change the settings in whatever program you use to open the jpg. Firefox has no control over that. What program do you use to open jpg?

  • How do I change the colour and keep the gradient?

    I've downloaded an EPS from Shutterstock with a series of icons that look like buttons and would like to change the colour breakdown, but keep the shading/ button 'look'.
    Please can you show me how? When I try to select a different colour breakdown of blue it turns grey and solid.

    Thank you very much for your suggestion. Unfortunatly I have not managed to get that to work either - see above, when trying the change the path colour to another blue (in one place - the highlighted row only) it comes up grey in multiple places (see group and mesh changed above).

  • When I try and sign into iCloud, it shows an old account name.  How do I change the account name I am trying to sign into, it is greyed out.

    How do I change the iCloud account name when signing in?  It defaults to an old account that is no longer active.

    Hello ryanduby,
    The simplest possible solution would be to use the password for your current iCloud account. Should that fail to get your old account removed, the following article can help get you clear of your old account.

  • When i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    when i add a new contact to my phone, their details are saved in my contact list, but the name doesn't show up when they ring or txt me, how can i change that?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • After rotating video, how do I change the black side bars from black to white?

    In the bad old days when I used iMovie, I coud rotate a video 90 degrees and get black bars on either side of the video.  Then I could add the negative effect and it would not only give me the negative of the video itself but it would also change the black bars to white bars, something I quite liked for the project I was working on.  This doesn't automatically happen in FCP X, so my question is How do I change the black sidebars to white sidebars (without changing anything in the video itself)?  Thanks.

    Make a white generator and put it underneath the video. The pillars are not black. They're empty.

  • How can I change the background colour when working on a doc in full screen view (pages)?

    Recently I have been working on docs without the distraction of having to see my desktop around my page file by using the full screen view in pages. I do find the contrast to an all black screen too harsh though and it makes my eyes more tired than seeing the clutter of my desktop around the page. Is there any way I can change the background colour?
    Any help much appreciated!

    When you are in Full screen mode move the cursor up to the top to show the Format bar. Then look to the far right. There you'll see Background  and a rectangle. Click on the rectangle and change the colour.
    For information on Pages download the Pages User Guide from your Pages Help menu.

  • In Firefox 4, how do I change the order of plugins on the Add-ons Plugins manager page (I turn Shockwave Flash on only to see videos - having it off prevents screen freezing - and so I want it stay at the top of the list)?

    In Firefox 4, how do I change the order of plugins on the Add-ons Plugins manager page? I turn Shockwave Flash on only when I want to watch a video and then turn it off to prevent screen freezing, and so I want it to PUT it and KEEP it at the top of the list.

    Hit Ctrl+0 (That's a zero, by the way). I'm not sure if it will work, but hey, that's the first thing I would try.

  • I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    I adobe acrobat 7.0 professional. When I open or save a PDF it reverts to Adobe Reader XI. How can I change that to the pro as it has far more editing options.

    You may want to keep Reader. You may want to select Acrobat as your default, but be able to click on a PDF (or PDF link) to open in Reader when needed. There are likely some PDFs that will not open correctly in AA 7 because of new features folks add. Just because it opens in Reader XI does not mean it is in the new format, but just that is the default opening you have. To tell the type of file, you have to open the PDF and check the properties (ctrl-D) and check Description>PDF version.

  • When I right click on a graphic to view image, the page background is dark. How do I change the color?

    When I right click on an image and choose "view image" from the list, it opens a page with the image on it but the background of the page is dark gray. How do I change the background color that the images appears on?

    It is a new feature in Firefox 11+ versions to display a single image centered with an almost black background.
    It is added by this stylesheet:
    * resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css
    You can look at this extension to set your preferred background color and remove the centering if you display a single image in a tab.

    You should restore the the iPod to totally erase the iPod and add your own media to the iPod.

    How do i change the "profile" picture on m iPad when I'm using iMessenger for IOS5?

    You do realize that only you see the photo associated with this correct - nobody else will see your photo - only you will.
    You have to add the photo in the contacts app. Locate your vcard and tap Edit. Then tap the area where the photo will be located to add a photo. You can take a photo or choose one from your photos app.
