Transparent bubbles
Hi everyone.
I'm trying to make the bubbles transparent. Tried the technique on P210 of the Book, using hard light, but it doesn't work here. Any suggestions gratefully received.
Chris

Re: Transparent bubbles
If the bubbles are on a separate layer and made with a layer style: lower the Fill value of that layer.

Sorry I've taken so long to reply - I'm on subscribe but not receiving notifications. That's a neat trick, Dave. What exactly is the difference between opacity and fill?

Re: Transparent bubbles
Opacity affects everything on the layer. Fill affects the layer's pixels but not the layer style. There is, of course, no apparent difference if there is no style applied.
