I'm trying to work something out thats interesting but i miss the know how to do it.

So here's one of koh questions again, hope you guys can give it a thought and maybe a solution.

Say I create a three color input. Let's say white, black and red. Is there a way i can make filterforge put in one texture for each color? All three textures generated in that same filter?

Hope someone can help me a step further!

Are you talking about taking something like Vladimir's Tri-Color filter and then doing a different texture for each different-colored area? He uses thresholds for that. You can use a single threshold to use two different types of textures in one filter, but you would need another threshold with one color alpha at 0 (transparent) and blend the 3 remaining colors together. Did that help?

I think i completely failed on explaining here, i'm putting my exploration in this message.

what you see is white, gradient black to white, white. the idea the upper white being texture one, the gradient black to white being texture two and the lower white being texture three.

Hope this will help better explaining smile:)

sorry, but your filter doesnt show up in FF. i put it in 'my filters' and it does not show up there when i run FF.

If wishes were horses... there'd be a whole lot of horse crap to clean up!

I opened it without any problem.

If I've understood You properly - it's not a problem at all. You can mix unlimited number of any filters in any combinations and patterns. Learning filters from the FF Library by opening them in the editor can be the most effective way here.

Did You mean something like this?
