edgarcia57 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Hello, I am looking for a specific (or close enough) texture layer with transparency, download link or how to create it. This is an image of the specific texture that I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alfred Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, edgarcia57. :) I'm confused. You obviously have exactly the texture you need, or you wouldn't have been able to attach that image here. So why are you looking for a download link? :unsure: Quote Alfred Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for Windows • Windows 10 Home/Pro Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 for iPad • iPadOS 17.3.1 (iPad 7th gen) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgarcia57 Posted June 21, 2017 Author Share Posted June 21, 2017 The image has no transparency so if I place on the canvas It shows the white backgroung. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smadell Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Two suggestions: 1) Open the texture file you already have. Choose "Erase White Paper" from the Filters menu. This will leave the black, but remove the white (and make it transparent). Export as a PNG file, which will preserve the transparency. 2) Open the photo onto which you want to add the texture. Choose Place... from the File menu, and put the texture file (above) on a layer above it. Decrease the opacity and/or change the layer blend mode to allow the texture to be applied. In the image attached, I put your texture on top of a flower photo, changed the Blend Mode to Multiply, and lowered the Opacity to about 80%.

dmstraker Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 You can also change opacity of a pixel image with Blend Ranges. Click on the gear icon in the Layers panel. In the left hand graph, drag down the dot on the right side. Play with shaping this for further effect. You can add dots by just grabbing a part of the line. This graph is luminosity on the x-axis (black on left, white on right) and opacity on the y-axis (transparent at bottom, opaque at top).
