Texture Gradient

[tnaisbitt]

Is there a way to get a texture map to fade from the full texture out to white. I would like to make a similar effect as I can with a uniform color starting out strong and then fading way to white. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I think this is in the wishlist.

Does this way work for you?
Add a Gradient Fill above the Texture Fill in Style Editor.
In Gradient Fill, set all Color Flags to White, but with different Opacities.
say (Flag 1 = 100%, Flag 2 = 0%),

Is the effect looks similiar to what you looking for?

That worked perfectly. I didn't know I could control the opacity of each flag. That's great. Thank you very much for the help. Now I don't have to try and bring it into photoshop and tweak it there! Saved mucho time!

Nice tip. This should be posted in the Impression tips section.

Thanks, I'll send it to Lisa.

And with the Gradient Style Opacity trick, you can create more effects like create a radial opacity gradient to have some fade effect from center to edge..
