Skrrrt Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Hello, I'm looking for help on how I would go around making the parts of the letter S which are overlapping the shapes black, as to make them visible? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Hi @Skrrrt, welcome to the forum Are the elements of your image on separate layers, or are we dealing with a single layered image?

Skrrrt Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 Multiple layers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJW Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 One way, probably not the best. Put the City layer in the lowest layer. Put a copy of the Text layer in the next layer, and invert to color, to make it black. Put the Stripe layer in the next layer. Put the Text layer in the top layer, with a Blend Mode of XOR. This works pretty well, except the text has a thin dark edge for the semi-transparent edge pixels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrrrt Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 That's alright! I appreciate the help and concern anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJW Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Another way, which works better, but is more complex: Put the City layer in the lowest layer. Put a the Text layer in the next layer. Put the Stripe layer in the next layer. Put a copy of the Text layer in the top layer, and invert the color to make the text black. Copy the Stripe layer to clipboard. Run BoltBait's Paste Alpha plugin on the top (inverted Text) using the Minimum of current alpha mode, and the Alpha source being Alpha channel on clipboard.
