The effect is slight, but enough to make the t-shirt mockup look realistic.Įxercise 2: Adding a Color Cast to a PhotoĪnother use of uniform transparency is to add a color cast to a photo, in this case a photo being used for a musician’s Facebook cover image. If you want to see the difference, click on the No Transparency icon to remove the transparency, then click on the Uniform Transparency icon to re-apply the transparency. With a slight transparency, the logo is a little less opaque and looks like it is inked on the garment. Select the Transparency tool and then select Uniform Transparency in the Property bar. We can apply a transparency effect to give the appearance that the logo is actually printed on the garment. Often a white or solid color design placed on a t-shirt photo will look like a sticker just stuck on there.


In our first exercise we are going use a uniform transparency to make a t-shirt mockup look more realistic. You can also adjust the opacity of the transparency and edit more details about the transparency. You can apply a transparency to the fill of an object, the outline of an object or both. Each transparency type also has a Transparency Picker, which allows you to select from different styles of transparency. When a transparency type is selected, the Property bar will display additional options.įor each transparency type you can apply a Merge Mode, which will specify how the color of a transparency is combined with the color of the object behind it. Once the tool is activated you will notice that the Property bar along the top changes to show the transparency types. It looks like a black and white checkerboard. The Transparency tool can be found in the CorelDRAW Toolbox on the left-hand side of the interface, above the Eyedropper tool. In this tutorial we will go through a variety of exercises to demonstrate how to use the Transparency tool and how to adjust the various settings for each type of transparency.Ĭlick on any of the images below to view full-size.
