The Shade Overlay feature in QuarkXPress allows users to adjust the brightness of a selected area in an image, making it either lighter or darker.
If you're a QuarkXPress user, then chances are you've had to deal with the challenge of placing text over an image without sacrificing readability. Thankfully, Shade Overlay is here to make that task easy for you.
This handy AppleScript allows you to easily lighten or darken a specific area of your selected image in QuarkXPress. To use Shade Overlay, simply place a text or picture box (even a polygon will do) over the area of the image you want to effect, select the overlay box and the image, and run the script.
The best part? The script even has custom preferences, allowing you to set the brightness and contrast of either the area covered by the overlay box or the area around it. You can also choose whether to use a duplicate file or the original, giving you complete control over your design process.
Overall, Shade Overlay is a must-have tool for any designer or QuarkXPress user looking to create beautiful, readable designs with ease.
