All you need to do is move this slider back and forth to determine how strong you want your color overlay. So, it’s up to you in terms of how strong you want the pink to be. (I’ll demo in a second what it would look like there.) I have not yet switched over to Canva 2.0, so this might look a little different for you if you are using that version. I have to mention that I am using the regular Canva. I’m going to click on that and then you just need to drag this slider over to the left and this is going to give you that pink overlay look. I’m going to click on that and then it’s super simple – all I need to do is come up over here to where it has the Transparency icon. I’m going to use my color palette for Website That Wows. If you have your brand colors, you can just click on the plus (+) sign here and you can actually input your color code - or you can also select it from the wheel just by moving this around, or you can actually save them within Canva like I have done here.

Then, what you’re going to do is go up to the Pick A Color icon and select the color that you would like your overlay to be. Then, again, you can drag this out - you want to cover your image in full. In order to do this, you are going to click on Elements and then Shapes, and select the Square.

So now for the fun part – now we are going to add the image overlay. I just click Upload Your Own Images, grab that image, and give it a sec to upload.Īll you need to do is click on that, and then you’re going to want to drag it to the edges so that it fills the entire area. Next, we’re going to go into Uploads, and we’re going to upload our image. All we’re doing here is ensuring that our canvas matches the size of our image. From the dropdown here, you can select your measurement, but I like to work in pixels, which is px. Now you’re going to type in those dimensions – 2000x1092 pixels. What you’re going to do is click Use Custom Dimensions.
#COLOR OVERLAY SOFTWARE#
Canva is my favorite, free software for non-designers. If you’re on a PC, just open it up where you can view the photo’s size. Then I can click Tools, Adjust Size, so that I can see the size of the image. I’m on a Mac, so this is going to open up in Preview. Then, what we want to do is open up our photo. I’m just going to click on it and then I’m going to click Free Download. I’ve found a photo that I want to use – this photo here.

#COLOR OVERLAY DRIVER#
Looking inside the driver or inside Windows display settings would be a step worth to go.Video transcript: How to Add a Color Overlay to Your Images (Simple + Free!) – Canva Tutorial But by default, color corrections should not be possible for a system (because of limited permissions), that might be done with a Windows user account, but as you said that you logged in with a different user account (hopefully a really new one) and you see the same problem it is not a user setting, in that case it would be a system setting.Īnd so, depending on the type of gc and driver, resetting the graphic card driver settings to default might be a test, not sure if that helps. One idea is that there maybe some settings in the graphic card driver which does some color corrections for specific applications (and maybe one of your students played with it. I'm surprised about all is looking good, just the area of the drawing window is not (including viewcube), also that it is not only AutoCAD but also Revit. May I ask which graphic card you have and which drivers?
