Polygonius Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 I „draw“ a shape, eg a rectangle, apply a rainbow-gradient and get this gradient „continuously“ . How can i easy „segment“ this gradient in eg. just 50 steps? Lazy example (just 10 steps) of what i mean. (Doing manually its quiet time-intensive. For a machine it should be very, very easy: Just divide a shape into some same-size segments and take the average of the color of this area.) BTW: Is the gradient „wrong“ (taken from Serif-default-library) or is it real, that the most left „squares“ have the EXACTLY same red? BTW 2: There should be 2 modes: A) is just appliying the quantize to the gradient itself (but keeping the shape, adjustment-layer... as one piece) and B) is also creating and grouping lot of new layers from each segment.(so, a "monochrome" pseudo-gradient could also use as a fast divider of a shape or adjustment....)....

Staff Leigh Posted January 12, 2018 Staff Posted January 12, 2018 Have you tried using the Posterise Adjustment? This should give you the effect you're looking for. Quote
Polygonius Posted January 23, 2018 Author Posted January 23, 2018 (sry for delay - spontan journey;-)) I do not know what you mean with posterise-adjustment, but the pixel-mosaic-filter does it very well. Thank you! Quote OSX 12.5 / iMac Retina 27" / Radeon Pro 580X / Metall: on! --- WWG1WGA WW!

But the web knows this meaning and now me too;-) Yeah, with posterize you get this effect, but it creates un-nice "fringes". The pixel-filter creates nice straight edges/lines/cubes.... but its only as destructive filter available, so it rasterizes the item! But, its oky, so often i do not need this feature and a wrong base-vector is replaced in millisecondes by another one...
