Inner glow size width can not be 1px #25

Open andrejilderda opened 11 years ago

Kind of Platform (Windows 7 / Window Vista / Mac 10.6 / Mac 10.7 / Others) Adobe Fireworks CS6, MacBook Pro, OSx 10.8.2. 2.3 Ghz Intel Core i7, 4GB ram.

Problem Description If you apply an 'Inner glow'-filter to a rectangle and type '1' in the 'width' input it will give the object an Inner glow width of '2'.

What it should do instead Just return a 1px Inner glow-width. Especially when the softness is set to zero this should be possible.

Steps to reproduce (if possible)

  1. Make a rectangle and give it an Inner glow via the Filter box in the properties panel. Fill in '1' in the width input field. Press enter to apply the filter.
  2. Dubble click on the just applied filter. You'll see the number in the field changed from '1' to '2' pixels.

Your workaround None

in order for there to be a glow, fw (or any graphics software) needs to create a gradient. you can't spread a gradient over one pixel.

Technically you're right, Linda, but in Ps it is possible to create an 1px inner glow. It just renders as a hard stroke, which is logical to me. The main advantage of this is that you can create 1px inner strokes also on bitmaps. This can be quite handy in different cases.

I'm with @ajilderda on this request as there have been several times where I've wanted to use a 1px inner glow. The approach the FW team should take it allowing the designers to easily achieve the same effects that can be done using CSS3.

With that said, I would request adding spread to the inner/outer shadows as this would produce the same effect and match what is being output in CSS.
