Question
Grayscale to Transparency transformation ?
Hi, I want to create a variety of transparency masks but a variety of them, with various sorts of dithering such as in the following sample.
I only could perform the dithering thing by starting from a white to black gradient. I have multiple layers in a file (mostly smart objects to keep as non desgructive as possible), each with a different kind of dithering, but they are all white to black.
I want transparent to black instead. If you download the above picture (produced by Gimp: menu Colors > Colors to Alpha) instead of just viewing if in the browser, yo should see what I mean). Points of attention :
- not only white to transparent but grey tones transformed to transparency levels
- greys should not remain grey yet transparent, but black with transparency
- my layers are currently smart objects
How can I do ? (I have found tutorials ht I could not replicate or it was only about pure white to full transparency).
