![]() The text fields give you quick access to your color’s HEX value for copying and pasting, and the option to manually set a specific color using RGB (red, green, blue) and alpha values.You can quickly access it by selecting a layer and pressing ⌃ C. The eyedropper lets you pick any color from your display, inside or outside of the Mac app.The preview shows the final result of your color settings.The sliders control your color’s hue (color) and alpha (opacity).Drag the point left to right to change a color’s saturation, and up or down to change its brightness. The color picker uses the HSB (hue, saturation, brightness) color model.The fill icons across the top switch between Solid, Gradient and Image fills and change the color popover’s settings to match.Once you pick a color, you can save it as a swatch to reuse it across your project.Click the Color well for any Fills, Borders or Shadows to reveal the Color Picker popover. If you know the alpha value of your color, multiply it by 100 and type it in this input field. The Alpha value can be anything between 0 and 100%. This value is impacted by the opacity slider. The alpha channel determines the transparency of the color. These fields will also automatically show the correct values no matter what tool you’ve used to pick your color. If you know the RGB values of your color, click the HSB label and input the value for Red “R”, Green “G”, and Blue “B”. If you know the HSB values of the color you want to use, you can input the values in the appropriate fields. These values will be updated as you move the picker in the color plane. “S” stands for saturation and “B” stands for brightness. “H” stands for hue, and you’ll notice as you change the color using the hue slider, the value in the field labeled “H” will change as well. You can click the label again to switch back. If you click the label, it will switch to “R G B”. Next to the HEX input field, you’ll notice 3 input fields labeled “H S B”. Learn more about HEX codes and web color formats. So, you can type in or input any HTML color value. This input field supports all web color formats. ![]() You can toggle between HSB and RGB by clicking the labels. RGBA values, broken down, in the R G B and A fields.HSBA values, broken down, in the H S B and A fields.Alternatively, you can breakdown the code and input each value in its own field: You can paste these values in in any color field in the Style panel or in the HEX input field in the color picker. If you want to get more precise when choosing a color, you can use web color names, Hex codes, HSB/HSBA values, or RGB/RGBA values. Typing in values in the appropriate input fields This is useful when adding color overlays on images or creating see-through backgrounds. 100% will make the color fully opaque, any value below that will make the color see-through. ![]() The opacity slider allows you to specify the transparency level of your color. You can, then, pick the right shade using the color plane above. The hue slider allows you to pick the hue of the color you want to use from the color spectrum. To change the color, use the hue slider below. You can move the picker along the x-axis to adjust the saturation of the color, and along the y-axis to adjust the brightness. The color plane allows you to pick the shade of the color you want to use. If you want to make the color less opaque, use the opacity slider. To pick a color from the spectrum, use the hue slider to choose a hue, then use the color plane to pick the right shade. Pro tip: Press the spacebar key to show or hide RGB numbers for the target color. So if you want to pull a color from an image, an existing class on the page, or a graphic from another application on your computer, you can do that using this tool. The eyedropper tool is a great way to pull a precise color from anywhere on the canvas or outside your current browser window. Check out a list of Webflow’s supported browsers. However, in the meantime, you will need to use Chrome or Edge to access the eyedropper tool now. In the future, the eyedropper tool may become available on other browsers (e.g., Safari, Firefox, etc.) as support for it is developed. Note: To access the eyedropper tool, you must use Chrome or Edge as your browser (e.g., a Chromium-based browser). To pick a color from any element on the canvas or outside your current browser window, use the eyedropper tool. You can also toggle the "eye" icon in the contrast ratio area of the color picker to see the curves between AA, AAA, and a Fail rating on WCAG. The same light blue text against a white background has a "Fail" WCAG rating because the white background color reduces the contrast ratio.

![]() That’s right-if you like your trails with a nice flow of features, with fun berms and quick hits of elevation that are manageable and fun, Fire Mountain is made for you. The network of trails is more than 10.5 miles total, so there’s plenty of room for everyone to recreate safely, responsibly…and flowy? The Fire Mountain Trails are Cherokee’s newest source for big adventure-a multiuse trail system that’s made to mountain bike, hike, or run. ![]() To learn more about Cherokee beadwork and Oconaluftee Indian Village, watch this video. Cherokee beading is uniquely stitched for easy mending in the future, and it can often take days to complete one single item. Solid beadwork refers to the making of headbands, belts, necklaces, bracelets, and more. Scroll work is typically sewn on the sides of men’s pants and on the hems of women’s skirts and dresses. Cherokee women wear traditional clothing and work throughout the day on various items including scroll work and solid beadwork. If you want to do more than see the finished beading process, add a trip to the Oconaluftee Indian Village, and you will get to watch local artists in action. See Cherokee Indian Beadwork in Action at the Oconaluftee Indian Village Many of the patterns are also inspired by and created to reflect Cherokee stories, beliefs, principles, and community values. Modern beadworkers now design their styles and patterns infused with their own personal meanings and symbols. Sadly, many of the old, traditional beading patterns have been lost due to time and the many changes the Cherokee tribe has faced. Historically beadwork patterns created by the Cherokee have had a wide variety of tribal meanings. Modern beadwork is now often done with stainless steel needles, flax thread, and glass beads. Visitors can see and buy handmade Cherokee beadwork, baskets, pottery, wood carvings, stonework, and more created by more than 250 local artists that are members. Established in 1946, Qualla Arts and Crafts is the oldest Native American cooperative in the country and constantly strives to preserve, support, and promote local Cherokee artists and craftspeople. ![]() Visiting Cherokee, North Carolina, or nearby Asheville soon? Don’t miss your chance to visit the Qualla Arts and Crafts Mutual gallery in downtown Cherokee. ![]() Purchase Beautiful Cherokee Beadwork at Qualla Arts and Crafts Mutual According to the Qualla Arts and Crafts Mutual, Inc., “homemade needles carved from the straight bone of a deer’s leg located just above the hoof were used to pull thread made from the fibers of hemp.” Trade with coastal tribes also sometimes provided access to colorful sea shells as well. Dried berries, gray Indian corn, and the teeth, bones, and claws of wild animals are just some of the decorative materials used. Traditionally Cherokee beadworkers would use all natural materials to create beaded clothing and accessory designs. Beadwork done by the Cherokee is ornamental and colorful. Arts that were practiced thousands of years ago have been preserved by many members of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians tribe and are still practiced today, including pottery, basket-weaving, finger-weaving, carving, and beadwork. Cherokee Beadwork and Beading Patterns The Ancient Art of Cherokee BeadingĪrts and crafts have always been a part of Cherokee history. ![]() I made some foolish errors including spelling “colloquialisms” wrong. While the bigger size of individual keys reduced errors by a lot, the improved autocorrect also helped. So, naturally, I tried using the hexagonal layout. The hexagonal layout is designed specifically to reduce typos and increase typing speed by 33%. Typewise comes with two keyboard layouts pre-installed: a traditional layout and a hexagonal layout. In order to test out Typewise 3.0’s claims of an improved autocorrect system, I engaged myself in copying the app’s press release into the Notes app on my iPhone. And it does so by employing Typewise’s own autocorrection technology that’s developed in collaboration with the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. Typewise claims that it helps you reduce typos by 4x as compared to traditional keyboards. Autocorrect is improved, but there’s still room for more Although, you’ll need to pay even for some basic features like returning to the alphabetical keyboard while you’re on the numerical keyboard by hitting Space.Īll-in-all, the improvements that Typewise 3.0 brings to the table make it worth checking out, aside from a few rough edges. Apart from that, Typewise has also introduced some new features over several updates that improve the overall typing experience including haptics, word replacements, and more. I’ve found that claim to be correct, but only to some extent. With Typewise V3.0 that is set to release today, the company claims that it has improved autocorrect which is completely implemented and managed by AI that lives on your device. Particularly, I pointed out that the autocorrect system was naive and the keyboard lacked some features that made switching over from a traditional keyboard difficult. I reviewed the app back in August and had some strong thoughts about how it worked and tried to change the way we typed on our smartphone. I’m gonna disclose here that this isn’t the first time I’m talking about Typewise. Typewise has also won second place in the Swiss AI Awards alongside the title of CES 2021 Innovation Awards Honoree. Employing 100% private algorithms capable of running offline, Typewise has been designed to always ensure user privacy which is the opposite of most keyboard apps on the market. The keyboard combines smart autocorrect and text predictions with a multi-language capability, and a dynamic hexagonal keyboard designed for two-thumb typing the app saves time, increases accuracy, and boosts productivity. Typewise’s Keyboard app is here to upend the way we type. But as with every industry, a product arrives once in a while that tends to upend the way we do things. That said, for most of us, using the virtual keyboard we use today on our smartphones has effectively become second nature. It’s a constant that’s required as a tool for input in almost every app. ![]() A keyboard is the most ubiquitous interface on your smartphone. Fortunately, the air is just fine, thank you, although Burroughs makes nothing of this.surprising, given the pains he had taken in previous books to explain the breathable air on Mars itself. For example, Carter & company jump out of their spaceship on that Martian moon, without bothering to check on the moon's breathable air. For example, the great Scarlet Tower of Greater Helium is referred to in this book, whereas in previous novels, this tower was referred to as being in Lesser Helium, and besides which, was destroyed in book 5, "The Chessmen of Mars." More of a problem in the current volume are the book's implausibilities. This novel features very few of the inconsistencies-both internal and with other books in the series-that mar every previous Carter novel. Both parts of the novel are as fun as can be, although very much different in tone. His subsequent adventures on the moon propel the reader into the realm of pure fantasy. In the second half, Carter's wife, Dejah Thoris, in what to any reader of this series must come as an instance of Dejah vu (uldn't resist!), is abducted again, and Carter follows her kidnappers to one of the Martian moons, using one of that planet's first spaceships. In the first half of the novel, Carter goes undercover to infiltrate this Murder Inc.-type of organization, and this segment is extremely tense and exciting. This time around, Carter goes to the Barsoomian city of Zodanga to put an end to the assassins guild that is thriving there. For the first time since book 3, "The Warlord of Mars," Carter himself takes center stage, rather than making a brief cameo appearance, and his return as the lead character is perhaps the best single element of this book. It first appeared serially in the "Blue Book Magazine" in six parts, from November 1934 to April 1935, and is one of the best in the Carter series. "Swords of Mars" is the 8th of 11 John Carter of Mars books that Edgar Rice Burroughs gave to the world. But otherwise, one of the best of the series. The ending of "Swords" is a complete, and satisfying, ending, even if it is abrupt. Better than the ending of "Thuvia, Maid of Mars," though, where the story just drops off at the brink of a world war that is never mentioned again. It's not that it's bad, it's just that it's a very quick summation. ![]() I don't want to oversell this, but if you like this sort of thing, it's especially well done. Really fun.Īs always, predictable fun - this is, after all, pulp fiction (literally, as that's how these were written). In this book, he's taking the fight to the assassins, instead of reacting to events. Entirely successfully, I might add - Carter really drives the action even more than in the first trilogy. Perhaps Burroughs realized this, and wrote this one to make John Carter front and center again. He's the main character in the first three books, and then functions as a King Arthur figure when he shows up afterwards - he wraps everything up after the main actors have already done everything. ![]() The society sponsors many awards, the oldest of which are the SMPTE Progress Medal, the Samuel Warner Memorial Medal, and the David Sarnoff Medal. SMPTE's educational and professional development activities include technical presentations at regular meetings of its local Sections, annual and biennial conferences in the US and Australia and the SMPTE Motion Imaging Journal.

![]() ![]() 2 If this is the case then it would make much sense to conclude that they are a symbol more so than a practical foodstuff, even in the narratives themselves.Īt the very least their function in the stories is that they are valuable on account of being (wholly or partially) composed of a precious substance. Perhaps worth noting is that whenever golden apples occur in Greek mythology-and also, as it happens, in the Norse myth to which you've alluded in which the Jötnar (Giants) steal both the goddess Iðunna and her apples-there is no (explicit) mention of them being eaten nor of anyone attempting to eat them.Īs silly as it might seem at a glance, the most obvious reason for this that I can see is that golden apples are-if understood to be described as solid gold (or anything close to this) rather than merely gold- coloured-are basically chunks of metal, which should be simply inedible, perhaps even to the gods. 1 The impression might be gathered here that this is not their purpose at all. There does not seem to be any ancient text explicitly stating that these apples confer immortality upon anyone, although a case can be made that, thematically, they-as you put it-“at the least are somehow related to immortality.”Ĭontrary, indeed, to what the Wikipedia article that you mention says, neither is there any ancient literary instance of the apples being eaten or consumed in any way. So my question, does anyone know about an ancient source that mentions the apples grant immortality? If not, it seems someone may have mistakenly thought about the Norse apples when he wrote the Wikipedia page. Now I have found zero evidence for a relation between the apples and immortality in ancient sources, and have looked in all the sources that theoi mentions regarding the apples. Some other sites mention they grant immortality, as well, but they too mention no source and seem to copy from Wikipedia. In any case, the problem is that Wikipedia mentions absolutely no source for the relation of the apples to immortality. This is particularly interesting if true because I recall some Norse myth about stealing apples that grant immortality to the gods. That is, the golden apples of the Hesperides grant immortality to the one who eats them, or at the least are somehow related to immortality. The Garden of the Hesperides is Hera's orchard in the west, where either a single apple tree or a grove grows, producing golden apples that grant immortality when eaten. Things to consider when picking the best remote for Apple TV I also considered the opinions of websites that are dedicated to covering Apple products, as well as critic reviews and user impressions. When selecting our picks, I researched sites like Amazon to see what other remotes are available for the Apple TV. I started covering consumer electronics for TechnoBuffalo back in 2011, and have written for many publications, including CNN Underscored, Gear Patrol, iMore, Android Central, and XDA Developers. And suffering through that has instilled a passion for finding a better way to use my streaming device of choice.īeyond personal pride, I’ve been writing about technology, including streaming devices, for a very long time.
