Gear maker Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 Can anyone explain why the text in the attached file is invisible? I can move it, change font, AD shows my fill color is changing when I change it, but I can't figure out how to make it visible. Any FX I try to add is also invisible. This is driving me crazy, I've never had this issue before. Temp1.afdesign Quote iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) with macOS Sierra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickRose Posted October 17, 2019 Share Posted October 17, 2019 There is a radial transparency on it. Callum, Gear maker and Patrick Connor 3 Quote Windows 10 Pro, I5 3.3G PC 16G RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gear maker Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Thank you. That did it! Not sure where that came from but it sure slowed down my progress. Quote iMac (27-inch, Late 2009) with macOS Sierra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be useful to indicate that some other function is being applied to the layer.

I've thought about this before but not sure how it would work. It would be necessary for: A fill gradient A stroke gradient Blend options Transparency Layer opacity Opacity using the opacity control in the color panel Open path And probably another half dozen instances. One symbol would be a help, but it could still be a long time to figure out which reason it was there for. Maybe hovering over the symbol could say which items were applied. Another symbol next to the fx next to the lock would eat up a lot of the name/type line. Maybe the fx could be just one of the possible instances in the above symbol.
