Effect in bleed

[MartinHH]

Hello,

When I have an effect on a photo f.e. a gradient, and the photo should be placed page-filling, I see the the effect only on the regular page, not in the bleed.

For the printer the bleed is the area that can be trimmed, hopefully consistently. However, if the printer crops this area inconsistently, the effect in the image will not be visible in these areas.

Is it possible to increase the effect all over the site including the bleed? Just to be sure.

Thanks and best regards

Hi @MartinHH,

I just tried and I don't get that. I applied both a Layer effect and an Adjustment on both a picture in a picture frame as well as an image i dropped directly on the document. The effects are applied all the way in the bleed.

Is this a bug introduced in the latest release? I'm still on 1.7.0.162 because the internal update mechanism will not get the current latest beta.

Hi @vonBusing,

yes, I'm on .167. Seems to be a bug in this version. 

Thanks!

Cheers

Hi MartinHH can you clarify what you mean by effect are you talking a layer effect or an adjustment layer? Layer effects seem to go into the bleed area fine for me, adjustment layers not going into the bleed area is a known issue

Hi Chris,

in this example I placed a photo over  the whole page incl. bleed, masked it and set a gradient to the mask. So the opacity is low in the area you see on my screenshot.

If a printer-company would cut the bleed not exactly, a bit smaller f.e.,  the difference would be visible.

@MartinHH: I was flipping around with images and layer effects and suddenly (I don't remember exactly what I did), the effect was not applied on the bleed area in similarity to your example. By hiding (uncheck in the layer panel) and re-enabling the culprit image, the effect on the bleed was restored.

@vonBusing: I'm afraid I can't retrace this here. Whatever I try to do, the effect is always the same.
