I have 2 layers, the first is the background layer. Then 2nd layer has a picutre that I have used the ellipse tool on. My question is how can I use the eraser tool on everything outside of the ellipse tool? I can only use it inside.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm having a problem with my Wacom tablet. The stylus tool works fine (gradients, pen, paint) except for the erase tool - it won't erase to full transparency when I select the erase tool then drag my stylus. This is weird, since the actual eraser end of the stylus works fine: I just hate using that end of the tool, and much prefer using the stylus' pointed end to do all my work.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI previously used Photoshop CS3. I do catalog work and we do quantities of paths around circular buttons and pins. CS3 would make a path around the button drawing from the center edge of the image while dragging across the item. CS6 doesn't appear to do this and only wants to draw the circle from a corner point where the top and left edges would meet for example. Can the ellipse tool be set to draw from center edge as CS3 did?

View 4 Replies View Relatedwhy my ellipse tool doesnt work. I used it the other day ( to draw a cirlce, obviously!). I had set the shape to be a fixed size (675 by 700 pixels) and clicked on the canvas to create the shape. This worked fine but when i went to use it again it wouldnt work. It allows me to select the tool and when i click and drag on the canvas a new layer is created but no image appears. I've tried the obviuos; putting the layer on top of all the others, checking the settings (opacity etc) but nothing seems to work.

My eraser tool is acting strange.Whatever pattern I erase, the tool turns it into an entire rectangular area as soon as I take my finger off the mouse. For example, if I draw an 'S' shape, it measures from the farthest corners and just erases the entire area in a neat rectangulare shape [].

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a good tutorial in the various uses of the eraser & segment removal tools. I cannot seem to get the hang of how to use these tools to erase or delete sections of a closed object and leave the object open after using the tool.
So far the only way I know of to leave an object open is by using the shape tool to open a curve - surely there is a way to do this with the eraser and/or segment removal tool.

View 17 Replies View RelatedI am using PS CC on Windows7 with a digital board (don´t know if that is correct english, but - with a digital pen, instead of a mouse)When I try to erease, clone or write with the pen tool, nothing is happening where the cursor is, but instead rather far below that point.If I use the mouse, it works well, also the digital pen could be used without any problems to perform other things as changing tools, close an image by clicking the "x", or chose layers or whatever.Changing to PS CS6 the problem disappears - everything works fine.
I have reset the settings by holding shift-ctrl-alt while starting the program.
