I finished editing my panorama in adobe photoshop elements 11 and want to add a filter to it, however, the filters are all greyed out. Not only that, but the 8bit/channel option is also greyed out. The picture is RGB/8.
View 3 RepliesUsing Photoshop CC I cannot apply any filter to a converted layer into a Smart Object if I select only a channel instead of RGB channel..Let me explain it with an example:
I create a new layer.Convert it into smart layer (vía menu Filters > Convert… or secondary clic hover the layer, it doesn't matter).
Select only one channel, p.e. green channel.Try to apply a filter… oh, wait! They all appears greyed out
This NOT happens in previous versions of PS, like CS6 or CS5. Neither if I select RGB channel.It happens on 8 bits or 16 bits.
Using PSE 11, I select several images to create a panorama, then select Enhance -> Photomerge and the "Panorama" option is greyed out and not available.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just purchased and installed PSE11. The photomerge options don't appear under File New. I have tried resetting preferences as suggested in the forum with no effect. I have PSE 6 installed on the same computer.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to create seamless greyscale patterns in AI CS6 by using typical Vector-Tools, Gradients and Transparency.Output however needs to be 16Bit/Channel RGB - 256 greys are clearly not enough on the Gradients, they would lead to nasty artifacts in the intended field of use explanation here.I realize that AI is 8bit and that internal Image-Conversion from Vector clearly was no option.The underlying question for me is - does AI also internally work with just with 256 shades of grey in its gradients too?Or was there theoretically a way to pass smoother Vectors over to PS which in contrast to AI can save 16 bit Gradients?All I tried thus far (importing AI though Clipboard as Shape-Layers/Smart-Objects) yielded unusable results for what I'm after.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm on Lr, edited some files to get a panorama, clicked on "edit in" then "merge to panorama in photoshop. All right until there. The problem is that once clicked it switchs to Ps CS6 and merging the pictures in a panorama but without the editing I did before in Lr (white balancing, lens correction and so on). I mean that Ps creates a panorama starting from the original pictures as if the pictures were not edited in Lr while I would like that - as I always did - Ps starts to work from my Lr's editing. I think that it is something about settings.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just purchased a copy of Elements and have never used it before. Most of my features (such as layers etc) are grayed out. However, my "covert to 8bit/channel" option is grayed out and I can't work out how to choot in 8-bit or how to covert my 24 bit photos to 8-bit.
View 12 Replies View RelatedOnce I create an alpha channel, how do I edit it? I have tried selecting and clicking the alpha channel, and then using the paintbrush tool. I understand that if I have a white foreground, painting should remove some of the mask, while a black background should result in the painting adding to the mask. But often nothing seems to happen when I paint. Or, at other times, the painting results in paint marks on my image but doesn't affect the "marching ants" and therefore doesn't affect the mask. I have already checked that my K setting in Color is at 0 for white and 100 for black. Using CS5 version 13.0 x64 with Windows 7.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a mean to edit (not create and then edit) an already existing alpha channel in a PNG file (for example). Here is the scenario:load a PNG file with a existing transparency layer created with some other application ( I see the usual checker board behind some transparent regions of the image)select a region ( lasso, rectangle, ....)change the transparency (alpha) of those pixels only, do not change anything else in the reste of the image (ex: make a region more transparent or more opaque). I do not want to edit the RGB content of the pixels, I want to edit their alpha value directly.save back the file to a PNG file with modified alpha value.

I've been using Photoshop CS6 for a while, and suddenly, some random "squares" shows up! A kind of a filter? And it prevents me for editing my pictures..! How this suddenly came up?
I'm using a MacBook Pro 15,4" Retina.
WIndows 7 x64 | PS CS6. Just now while attempting to edit a Channel Mixer adjustment layer's creation dialogue settings, about 15 browser windows (not tabs but individual windows) trying to load Adobe docs all popped opened simultaneously.Killed Firefox's process and went back to PS.Every time I went back to PS though, it would happen again, when I clicked in the Channel Mixer settings.
Got out of the loop by mashing the ESC button as I switched back to PS, which successfully killed the Channel Mixer dialogue.I've seen this behavior in PS for about 4 versions now, but never this severe. How dysfunctional.
Is it possible to directly edit the alpha channel? I need to edit it for a 3D model I've made, and its showing up as too shiney (The engine is looking at the alpha for reflectivity).
However, I have yet to see a way to edit the alpha channel directly.
Is paint.net v4.0 still promising color and alpha channel editing / masking?
I'm sure I read this in the roadmap feature list years ago, though I can't find the place to reference it. In fact this is my favorite anticipated feature for which I've been checking paint.net every month for the last five years!
I eagerly downloaded the 4.0alpha but see no sign of color channels to go with layers

View 3 Replies View RelatedOne set is light, and the other is "dark," so to speak. Just wondering what filters and what not are used. I am aware that a lot of it comes from the actual lighting itself while the photo is being taken. I am just wondering what is being used and how this is done.
The "light" photos some "pin-up" technique, I am guessing. (Moti Malul Photography):

The "dark" photos. I am guessing a lot of dodge and burn, but to what extent?
The documentation and information shows a panorama function available from the drop-down menu, but there is no option in the software. Has that feature been dropped from the software?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen creating a panorama in Elements from a number of photos, I consistently get the following error message: “Would you like to automatically fill in the edges of your panorama?” When answering “Yes” I get the following message:
“Could not fill because there is not enough memory (RAM)”. I tried making a panorama of 2 images (total size 6.3MB) and didn’t get the message. Adding one additional photo (total size 7.4MB) I got the message once again.
This message occurred with Elements 9 so I doubled the amount of RAM and got the same message. Now I have upgraded to Elements 11 and continue to get the same message. Is there a fix? Is the 6.3MB size the limitation for creating the panorama?
How can I make a panorama using Elements?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI cannot make the photomerge panorama function work in elements 11. It simplygenerates the standard Window 7 error message and when it can't find a solution the program closes. In previous versions ( 9 and 10) it always worked and never caused a problem.
Attempting to rebuild the preferences file as suggested for a similar problem affecting earlier versions was also done but to no avail. Its a function I use quite frequently so until it is resolved I will keep using version 10.
