![]() To make a linear gradient, select the object you’d like to apply it to and open the Fill & Stroke menu by pressing Control + Shift + F on your keyboard, or by navigating to: The Fill & Stroke menu should populate as a dockable menu on the right-hand side of your screen. Select the Fill tab towards the top of the menu, and look for the button that reads “ Linear Gradient” if you hover your cursor over it: The location of the linear gradient option is outlined in red above.Ĭlicking on that button will turn your object into a gradient fill where the left side of the gradient is the original color and the right side is transparent. Everything in-between is a transition between those two fills: The gradient will have the original color on the left and transparency on the right. Now let’s edit this gradient further by grabbing the Gradient Tool from the toolbox on the left-hand side of your screen, or by pressing G on your keyboard. With the Gradient Tool, click on either of the nodes on the left and right sides of the gradient path to select it. Once selected, you can change its color as you would any other object. Then, you can select the other node and change its color as well: The Gradients Tool will let you change the colors of the gradient. If you’d like to add more colors to your gradient, you can double-click the path with the Gradient Tool to add a new node and change its color the same as you did previously: A third color has been added to the gradient by double-clicking the path to add a new node.įinally, you can use the Gradient Tool to click and drag the end nodes around the canvas to move your gradient: The gradient position on the canvas can be changed by simply clicking and dragging the endpoint nodes. You can also slide the nodes between the end nodes back and forth to change the positions of the colors in the gradient. Let’s go over the second-most common type of gradient you’ll be working with - radial. Radial gradients function in Inkscape the same way that linear gradient do. To make radial gradients in Inkscape, follow the same process for creating linear gradients: The only difference is that the colors follow a circular path instead of a straight path.Select your object and open the Fill & Stroke menu.Select the Fill tab and click on the button that reads “ Radial Gradient” when you hover your cursor over it.Grab the Gradients Tool and click on each node of the gradient to change its color individually.The hammer in this FAQ is from Andy Fitz’ vector image from the openclipart library.The option for radial gradients is located just to the right of the linear gradient option: The radial gradient option is located right next to the linear option. TheLamborghini Gallardo SVG is included with the Inkscape source code. When this button is toggled on (pressed), inkscape gradients should start behaving more as you expect. There is a Button in the Tools Control Bar for the Select Tool that lets you toggle if inkscape transforms gradients when an object is transformed. ![]() Note, also that if the object is resized (scaled), the gradient handles would not have resized either. The gradient handles have remained in the location that they were before the move. ![]() If you were to un-group the objects making up the hammer, and choose the Gradient Tool, graphic representations of the gradients in the objects would become visible:Ĭompare to how the gradients look after the object is moved: In most cases, when this behaviour is encountered, the object is moved but the gradients are not. Colors darken or lighten, gradients disappear or become a solid color again. In the following example, the object is a group of shapes depicting a shiny hammer.īut when you move the object around on the canvas, the gradients change. You have an object on the page that contains gradients. However, having gradients behave strangely when moving or resizing an object is a common issue encountered by Inkscape users. A Lamborghini Gallardo drawn entirely with Inkscape vectors. When combined with the blur filter, gradients can be used to create photo-realistic vector images. Gradients in vector graphics provide the ability to provide the illusion of depth and light to otherwise flat images. The gradient tool in Inkscape is a powerful feature that allows artists to add and edit linear and radial colour gradients on-canvas. ![]()

![]() If you're interested in trying a vibrating alarm clock but the Sonic Bomb seems too aggressive for you, check out iLuv's TimeShaker. Just take note that, according to reviewers, you can only turn the alarm sound down to low, not fully shut it off. "It was my best purchase of the year," says one reviewer. Though our experts haven't evaluated this model in our Labs yet, it comes with glowing reviews online (namely 14,000+ 5-star reviews on Amazon). With seven different color options, it also functions as a bedside lamp or nightlight and has a USB port at the back to charge your devices without the need for another outlet. If you need a bit of extra time, you can tap the light to snooze the alarm up to five times. The sunrise simulation light starts 30, 20 or 10 minutes before your set alarm time, gradually brightening until it’s fully lit. You can choose from birdsongs, ocean waves, streams, wind bells, soft music or piano music in addition to a traditional beep or FM radio mode to start your day. If a gentle rise-and-shine is more your style, this clock's seven different nature-inspired sounds and sunrise simulation light can make waking up in the morning a little easier. Not everyone is fan of being jerked awake by harsh beeps in the morning. Our picks for the best alarm clocks to buy in 2023 include top-performing models from our Lab tests and well-reviewed products from popular brands with unique features that impressed our analysts. Do you just need a basic analog model? A loud clock radio that can wake even the heaviest of sleepers? A stylish digital smart alarm that can also charge your phone?

Not a morning person but want to be? Putting away the screen and switching to an actual alarm clock is a great way to start. Plus, according to the National Sleep Foundation, exposure to bright lights and screens before bed can throw off your circadian rhythm and compromise your sleep quality.

Sister is the Sexpot, who keeps making stupid choices in men to try to attain the lavish lifestyle she wants. The group is set and Stix goes about getting them gigs, and the requisite fabulous coordinating dresses.Īll of this would work if the characters weren't so thinly and familiarly drawn. Dee, biding her time until medical school, figures why not. Sister, home from a failed marriage and desperate to make enough money to move out, is in. Because she's not confident enough to command the stage on her own, Sparkle begs her sisters to join her and form a girl group, all the rage at that time. And a new boyfriend, Stix (Derek Luke), who wants to be the next Berry Gordy (founder of Motown Records) and sees great potential in Sparkle's songs. And that more involves anything but following in her footsteps into the music industry.īut Sparkle has a dream. Houston plays the sisters' mom, Emma, a washed-up singer turned good church-going woman who wants more for her three daughters. Deborah Martin Chase, who produced this new version, had been working with Whitney Houston ( Sparkle executive producer and a co-star here) for over a decade to remake the film, and, sadly, it wound up being Houston's final project. The original 1976 movie was set in 1950s Harlem and starred Irene Cara as Sparkle and Philip Michael Thomas as her boyfriend/manager Stix. ![]() In fact, this isn't the first time Sparkle has hit the big screen. But also the stereotyped characters and well-worn plotlines. The great costuming and late-60s nightclub vibe. So much of what's right and wrong with Sparkle is packed in those opening scenes. Five minutes later the sisters are on a bus home, hoping to sneak in before their overprotective mom wakes up and realizes they've been gone. Sister does take the stage and belt out a vampy song, much to the delight of the men in the audience and the joy of her sister, Sparkle, who wrote it (well, thanks to Curtis Mayfield). One, dressed in a sexy silver dress, is getting ready to perform, and the other, dressed in a demure sweater and skirt, is begging her not to back out. It's 1968 Detroit, and we open with two young African American women in a nightclub. (Oh c'mon, as if that's any kind of spoiler). So we watch the familiar unraveling, shaking our heads at the screen over all the lost potential, all the unnecessary carnage. Jakes, Salim Akil, Mara Brock Akil and Curtis Wallace.Why, why, why do women in musical girl groups ever try to find love? Haven't they seen the other movies? Don't they know that men will be their downfall? The Anderson sisters-Tammy (known as Sister, played by Carmen Ejogo), Dee (Tika Sumpter), and Sparkle (Jordin Sparks)-apparently haven't been warned. "Sparkle" is produced by Debra Martin Chase, T.D. As previously reported, executive producer Howard Rosenman, who also produced the original "Sparkle," plans to adapt the 2012 film into a Broadway musical. The remake takes place in Detroit, MI, in the 1960s during the Motown era. The original 1976 "Sparkle" centered on three singing teenage sisters from Harlem who form their group in the late 1950s. Kelly penned original songs for the 2012 remake, which is choreographed by Fatima Robinson ("Dreamgirls") and features a screenplay by Mara Brock Akil. From an affluent Detroit area and daughter to a single mother (Houston), she tries to balance a new romance with music manager, Stix (Luke) while dealing with the unexpected challenges her new life will bring as she and her two sisters (Ejogo and Sumpter) strive to become a dynamic singing group during the Motown-era." Here's how "Sparkle" is described: "Musical prodigy, Sparkle (Sparks) struggles to become a star while overcoming issues that are tearing her family apart. Rounding out the cast are Cee-Lo Green, Tika Sumpter, Mike Epps, Carmen Ejogo, Omari Hardwick and Derek Luke. Sparks, who also appeared on Broadway in In the Heights, takes on the titular role, with Houston as her gospel-singing mother. The film, directed by Salim Akil, is inspired by the doo-wop girl group The Supremes. ![]() ![]() ![]() (Jill Meryl Levy, Take Command of Your Writing.

And, because it’s all one piece and covers both the base and the display, it hides the hinge mechanism that joins the screen mount to the body.īest laptop 2023: The finest Windows, Apple and Chrome OS notebooks On a more positive note, the cover does a good job of looking like leather and makes the Elite Folio appear – when closed at least – more like a book than a laptop. This is one of those idiotic marketing ideas that really grinds my gears: forget the fact that vegan leather is a contradiction in terms, why try to dupe customers with meaningless greenwash when you’re actually using plastic? HP calls the attractive soft-touch covering on the lid and base “vegan leather” when, in fact, it’s just polyurethane plastic. My one problem with the design has more to do with HP’s marketing bods than its designers or engineers. In tablet mode particularly, it looks and feels much less like a laptop that’s been folded the wrong way than most conventional 2-in-1 machines. Despite that, it’s a clever and curiously satisfying design that feels as though it will last. One significant difference between the Acer and HP machines is that the Acer’s display can be used in any position between laptop and tablet, but the HP’s can’t: it just flops about until you position it on the deck and the three magnets in the display engage. Magnets keep everything firmly in place, no matter which position you're in. Tilt the screen further back and you can fold it flat, turning the Elite into a tablet. It looks rather more composed in this form than conventional 2-in-1s, which lack a base when set up like an A-frame or have to rest on their keyboards. Pull the bottom of the screen forward and you can rest it on a lip between the trackpad and the keyboard in a sort of “tent” mode with just the trackpad showing. Open the lid of the Elite and it looks and feels like a regular laptop the difference is that the screen is hinged on a support midway up each side. If that sounds oddly specific it has to be, because other laptops – including the aforementioned HP Spectre Folio 13 and Acer ConceptD 3 Ezel – predate the Folio as the first laptops with “pull-forward” displays. HP describes the Folio Elite as the “world's first pull-forward business convertible PC”. HP Elite Folio review: Design and build quality I have no reason to change my view that it remains one of the best 2-in-1 laptops around. The Lenovo Yoga 9i is also worth a look with models starting at only £1,000 (Core i5, 8GB RAM, 512GB SSD) and it, too, comes with a bundled stylus. It’s compact, lightweight and stunning to look at, and comes with a glorious 4K OLED display. HP’s 13.5in Spectre x360 is an absolute masterclass in laptop design, too. When I reviewed this model’s laptop counterpart, the Galaxy Book Pro, I found very little to complain about. If you want a superlight laptop experience in a 2-in-1 format, then Samsung’s Galaxy Book Pro 360 is worth considering. That is not what the HP Elite Folio has been put on this earth to do. So I will have no truck with anyone who buys one and then complains it can’t play games, connect to half a dozen monitors or house a 1TB media collection. ![]() ![]() HP is pitching the Elite Folio as a machine for the on-the-go business person who prioritises lightness, compactness and long battery life over everything else. HP Elite Folio review: What you need to know It also runs on the ARM-based Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx chipset, promising several advantages over the usual Intel and AMD x86 platforms, including better battery life and cellular connectivity. That’s not the only unusual thing about the HP Elite Folio, however. The laptop was squarely aimed at consumers, but now HP brings the idea to its Elite range for businesses. Remember the leather-clad HP Spectre Folio 13? That clever 2-in-1 hybrid eschewed the usual 360° hinge in favour of a foldaway screen that offered the twin advantages of reduced thickness and weight. ![]() ![]() To become Internationally Acclaimed Centre of Excellence in the area of Design, Development & Manufacturing of Quality Tools & Components, Project Consultancy & Skill Development.
