Highlight Question

[b1rd]

Is there a highlighter or another way to highlight something? (PF v6.3.2)

I've played around...and as usual...it's most likely right in front of me >

Thanks,

Hi bird,

no specific highlighter tool in PF6, but some other ways to do as it looks like.
First way :
- take an advanced paintbrush tool in a fluorescent color,
- hold shift key, hold left clic and drag mouse on right
- Shift + Ctrl + Z and fade paintbrush tool (to reduce opacity, principaly on a text)

Other way :
- select the area to highlight
- Run Photomasque and chose a mask like "dilution" in color mode with a fluorescent one
- adjust opacity

Tom, thanks. I think you've helped me before and I really appreciate your assistance.

Any chance a there's a highlighter plug-in coming down the pike? (OK, I'm lazy.....)

I didn't know this saying . Perhaps wish you such a plugin falls under your left mouse click ?

I think it's not a high priority for the moment,
mostly because the advanced brush tool in the Studio release can directly control opacity,
without using a fade operation.

Actually, I was able to do what I wanted within three steps after all by back filling and then fading the fill.

Thanks again for the help.
