It looks like Plasma 6.7 is going to be shipped with themes from Plasma 4

File: Clipping masks in Vegas.jpg (206 KB, 300x1080)

I want to be able to clip the mask from the left side(bright cyan for visibility) to look like the right side. Is there any way to do this?
>>
I'll answer my own question because I was stupid.
Create two video tracks. One will be the clip, the other will be the mask.
Pair the second track as a compositing child of the first(left hand side, burger menu of the video track.)
Make your clip mask on the first video channel. It's preferable that it is white.
Create your other mask on the second video channel. It can be any color.
Switch the compositing mode of the first video channel to Multiply(same place as making it a Composite Child.)
Ta-dah. 1 and a half hours of trial and error for literally no reason.

Am I fucking retarded for still using Adobe Illustrator? All I do is make shitty anime vectors and the workflow drives me fucking nuts each time. Is this shit just absolute ass for productivity or am I just retarded?

Everytime I try to look up tutorials for this shit it just gives me ass unrelated "how to trace your linart" horseshit. Also why the FUCK doesnt illustrator have drop shadow still in 2026. Fuck I'm mad.

Illustrator is a nightmare, and the best, for control on everything but texture, or realistic shading. Don't fucking touch gradient mesh.
Sketch in photoshop or with a brush in illistrator
Drop opacity make a new layer do your your line work.
Have the entire pen tool, tool bar out and floating.
use the pencil tool to draw the shapes
use the eraser to refine them
expand appearance of those shapes then combine them in the pathfinder menu, simplify the path, the use the direct select to to erase and adjust the curves of your paths. use pen to to make exact curves, then epand apperance and merge into the shapes, repeat repeat repeat.
when you get your outlines done, merge again, then put a block of color behind it, select both find the pathfinder button that divides, try and move the color block, if there are no gaps, you'll have cut outs for all your color fields, and can adjust colors now, If there are gaps, you have to use the knife tool, and draw over the gaps to separate the shapes.
then you can use shapes or knife to cut those color blocks to add two or three tone shading, or just export it once you have your flats and shade it in photoshop.

>unification tools
What do you mean? Like one magic tool that does everything?
That wouldn't make a lot of sense since these tools all do different things. They each take a lot of resources as well, which is the main reason they're still split into separate applications.
Staying within the Adobe ecosystem is the closest thing to "unification" that's plausible.
>>464183
Because people who call themselves "graphic designers" are mostly students, early in their careers, or retards.

Is graphic design worth learning in the age of AI?

Principles / fundamentals / shit they would teach you in school?
Yes.
Is it worth spending tens, or hundreds of thousands, to go to school for it? lol, no. Absolutely not.
Watch some free courses on youtube or something.

Teenagers who want to be influencers end up better graphic designers from making their thumbnails than most people graduating with degrees in it. The degree is more about being a part of the artsy-fartsy seen. The only people who take GD seriously as a career after like age 25 are flamboyantly gay men and art-girls. Everyone else moves onto some other industry/role, bringing their design skills with them as a side-skill.

definitely not, ESPECIALLY if you're intending on wasting money on a degree or school.

Has anyone actually been using this. If you put a vector in a group the vector points become skewed, so you can't have something like a perfect square or circle. It's always something like 121 x 120 pixels. What a piece of shit software, just use Inkscape it's also free/

It's frustrating. Almost nobody uses them IRL and the two fountain pen forums and the subreddit have a demographic that usually angers me. I think the poster above is right that this "hobby" draws a higher-than-normal anxiety enthusiasts.
>>462736
The most annoying thing about fountain pens is that many dry out, whether within days or weeks or months. Therefore my primary suggestion is to get one that does not do this. To achieve this, get a screw-off style cap instead of a snap on/off cap (the snap mechanism requires the cap has tiny holes in it, to prevent a vacuum that would pull ink out). The best company for this is Platinum because they have a "Slip and Seal" technology that is known to keep the nib wet, even when stored unused for months.

As a beginner I would suggest buying two Platinum Preppys, in in a fine and one in a medium. This should get you an idea of what it's all about with a cheap, reliable pen that is not going to annoy you. And they come with a little bit of ink.

To upgrade this order slightly, get one or two converters to go with the preppy and some ink samples that appeal to you. Much of the joy in fountain pens is in playing with different ink colors, and converters allow you to swap colors with just a bit of cleanup in between.
>>
>>462737
are the noodlers inks in some way special or good? I like their designs but never tried the product itself
>>
>>454720
It's cool if you're a big fucking deal lawyer or CEO signing shit constantly. Otherwise, you just look like a weirdo. What are you people even writing with pens besides your signature and a date?

i just gold my first gold nib montblanc used for under $50 shipped. you too can do so if you look for used pens in japanese domestic marketplace. yahoo japan, mercari japan and use a proxy shipping service like sendico. my thirdworld ass got a hold of 70s montblanc 320p this way. if you want to get gold nibs this is the cheapest way i know. the same listings in these places are reposted on ebay with higher prices, why not go straight to the source? gold mine for japanese pens 70s-90s and montblanc too surprisingly. my theory is they hoarded a lot of luxury before 90s japan crash.
