Why is my image so light in color?

Post by Kelleysbiz »

I mostly use Scal 2 so forgive my tardiness in asking this question even though I have had scal3,3pro & 4 pro for a while now...But anyway...When bringing in a file or choosing one from the shapes available why does it come in so light I can barely see it? Is there a way to make the lines darker so I can see them? When I select the image & hover over the item it turns darker but doesnt stay that way. I hope someone can help me here Im half blind already!

Kelly, the only thing I can think of is that somehow you've set your opacity down some. Go to your fill/stroke color and see if the slider is all to the right.

It might also be your monitor settings but I don't know how to tell you how to fix that. You could check in with craftedge support directly by going to craftedge.com and select support where you will get a form to fill out.

Let us know how you got it fixed :D

There is also a general Workspace alpha value in the Documents tab.
Set it to 100 to not allow the mat to show through the design.
