I have been using feather on image photo to create the all corner faded edges however after I upgraded to ver CS6, I encounter this problem when I applying the same method using feather (radius: 15-20) on the image photo and did an inverse, a warning message popped out
"Warning: no pixels are more than 50% selected the selection edges will not be visible". Hence, cannot apply any feather on the image, My image is a full solid color layer.
When I copy a selection from one image to another, I can't select the feather tool to blend it in the new image (it's greyed out). I have to first anchor the layer, then use the paths tool to re-select the pasted portion again, then feather. Is there another way?
Update: Looks like I can feather before copying/pasting the selection.
Image not updating after applying filter in CS6. Preview is generated but filter won't apply. Very sporadic so I'm assuming it might be a memory problem. Using on Win7, AMD Phenom II, with 8 GB of memory.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am applying Artistic filters to an image in Photoshop. Some of the filters are turning the image into a black and white image, for example, the "torn edges filter." And it then does not seem possible to change that layer into a colored layer. Other filters, such as "glass" leave the image its original color. Is it possible to use the torn edges filter without turning the image black and white?

Added a new layer, fill it with red, changed mode to Overylay, and when I tried merging down, or saving as a jpeg, it converts the image right back to B&W. I even tried changing my brush to red and Overlay mode, it just won't let me color the image at all. I've tried hue/saturation, and when I try to save the adjustment, it converts right back to B&W. Here are some screen shots.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of prepping individual components of a design for Flash animation. I'm trying to apply a layer of #7C6844 with the color effect at 56% opacity and a layer of #999999 with the color burn effect at 12% opacity to the foreground image which has a transparent background. This task has proved to be rather impossible for me, but it seems like there should be a way to do it. I would use the wand tool > select inverse and apply the colors over top that way, but the foreground image has a lot of leaves and branches, so that method would be extremely tedious.
Is there a way I can select the entire image as a whole and leave out the background?
I'll attach the image and the desired result to further assist.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI can crop and feather a selection of an image, but what i wanted to do was apply a feathered edge to an entire image so that i could drop it into a word doc and it would look a bit smarter.
I've been trying to do it by -
'Select > All ' then ' Select > feather ' applying the amount of feather (i did an inch just to make sure).
But it made no difference - i tried exporting this as a JPEG to see if it came up then but it still didn't make a difference...
I am having a problem that may be a simple solve (but not for me). My image disappears after applying a rectangle to it. I have tried "bring to front" and don't know what else to try.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to apply individual unique keywords to a large (1000+) set of images. Is there a faster way to advance to the next image after applying a keyword than using the mouse to select the next image from the library browser? A feature similar to the Shift>[rating number] trick to advance to the next image while assigning ratings?
My lack of knowing this trick is killing my productivity by at least a factor of two.
I reset the feather to 0 but it still seems to be there. That is, I make a selection, and when I color it in, there is still a bit of blur (about 5 to 10 pixels worth) between the colored region and the outside region. How do I ensure that feathering is disabled (or set to zero)?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded to Photoshop CS3 from (CS2)
In previous versions (CS2 and earlier), if you select a part of an image, including borders, and then apply the feather command, then the selection edges along the borders were not feathered but the selection edge inside the picture (and bordering another part of the picture) was feathered. (The selection may be a rectangle or an irregular shape. In either case it is just the selection edge that is INSIDE the image that is feathered, and the selection edges along the border of the image are not feathered.)
Result: you get a rectangular selection with one edge feathered. (Or with a slightly irregular shape if the selection border within the image is not a straight line.)
Very useful if e.g. if you want to darken the sky in a high contrast sunny-day image.
Now to the problem:
In CS3 feathering occurs on the entire selection, including those parts of the selection that are along the edges of the image.
Result: you get an oval shape selected where all edges are feathered. And you cannot use that to darken e.g. the sky.
I'm trying to get the feather on my selections to retract instead of expand. With any of the marquee tools, I can set the feather in the options bar at the top to n pixels and the selection area retracts by that amount. But if I use the magic wand tool or Select -> Color range... I don't have the feather option on the option bar, but I can go into Select -> Feather... and set it that way. Unfortunately, it seems the same value I enter in there has the opposite effect of the marquee tools' feather. That is, the feather EXPANDS by that amount. I can't enter a negative value since it doesn't allow values below 0.2.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have made a small 10x10 px. pic (lets say it's a diamond shape), and want to enlarge this to, say, 500x500 px. to get a sort of "digital" effect, where you can see the pixels clearly.
I use free transform to do this, and it looks fine until I press "enter" to confirm transformation.
Then the pic suddenly gets very blurry, like the "feather" effect.
So does anyone know if it's possible to enlarge pictures of this size, and keep the edges "un-feathered"? I've looked around, and can't seem to find a solution ("feather" and "anti-aliasing" is set to "0").
Alternative is if you know a way to make the same effect without having to enlarge the pic.
I made this picture in Photoshop CS2 using the select -> feather, option:
As you can see I feathered a few layers and put them together. I applied the mask layers. But now, when I want to save my picture as a png or jpg file, it saves my picture like:
So almost without the transparency. How do I make sure that the transparency is just as much as in the first picture ? I want it to be at least as like I see it in photoshop. I tried to let someone else save the picture, but it gave the same result. I further tried all sorts of settings when saving the file. But nothing helped until now. I also tried to merge the layers together, without any positive result for my problem though.
If I draw a closed path with pen tool that has sharp angles and then make a selection out of it I always end up with a feathered selection. How do I make the selection follow the path exactly?

I'm using a Photoshop CS2.
When trying to run some actions, I get this error message in PS CS4:
The feather command is not available now."
WHy is it unavilable and how can I make it available?
I select an area with the rectangular marquee tool and then select "feather". When I click ok, the are to be feathered does not remain rectangular, but instead takes on a dome shape that varies depending on the size of the area I selected and the pixels to be feathered.
I have NO idea why this is happening, as I've used the feather tool before and it has just feathered in a square. I don't want it to feather all around, I just want it to feather left/right. Does this make sense?
I use the Marquis tool. Draw a circle. Right click and apply stroke.
But what if I want to apply a feather to the stroke?
I have an image, for example a car.
I want a white border (30 px) aroud it. So I select the space aroud it, then I inverse the selection so the car is selected.
Then I go select-modify-expand and give it a border of 30 px. The selection looks "squarisch", i mean not smooth, so i go to select-feather and give it a amount of 15. Now is the selection smooth, the way I want it.
But now the problem:
If i want to fill the selection with white, the color doesnt stay in the selection. there is some sort of gradient white outside the selection. That isn't what I want. Only the selection should be white, nothing outside it.
I am trying to find a vector shaped feather to use in photoshop CS5.
Where can i find it (is it a file with an CSH ending?)
Is a brush the same thing? is it also a vector?
How do you turn off the feather when painting a simple square or circular selection? Also, when I delete, it feathers as well... and I can't seem to findhow to adjust this!
