I have followed the instructions provided but when I click on Stragten Photo, it turns the photo almost diagonally. I never get the line that appears in the How To blurb. I find that i go back to my old software to do this task as it is much easier.

View 3 Replies View Relatedif I use the Straighten tool (first the ruler to mark out a horizon line, then click the Straighten Layer button), Photoshop used to straighten the picture, and then automatically crop it so that none of the extra canvas shows.
When I do that now, it just straightens it, and leaves me to manually crop the picture.
I am a photographer and I am trying to straighten a postcard photo of the Washington Memorial. I want to straighten the memorial without harming the rest of my photo (it is a aperture priority photo and I have flowers near my camera and the memorial in the background). So I want to highlight the memorial and straighten it- what is the best way to do this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy boyfriend purchased Photoshop Elements 11 for me recently and I am just now learning how to use it. I did some Wedding photos for a friend yesterday and I've edited them but some of them are slightly crooked. I went looking for a straightening tool but was unable to find it. I finally found in the menu where it says 'Rotate' and looked in that selection and at the bottom it says Straighten and Crop and underneath that is another that says "Straighten".
I went on Youtube and whatever I find there is so majorly different from my program that I cannot even use their tutorials. How to use Photoshop elements 11 to straighten my photos? I need to do this right away so the couple can have their photos.
When I click on the straighten tool and then click on a horizontal line on my photo, as I attempt to draw the line across the photo it freezes after a fraction of an inch and rotates the photo before I've drawn the line along the horizontal feature I'm using and it's always wrong. I had this problem with my downloaded trial version of Elements 11 and it appears on the version I purchased in the store today.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen trying to place an image into a new document in photoshop elements 12, I select all-copy-paste the image (or even drag it) over to the new doc created. However, when I do this - the image does not paste in at the same size. It typically shrinks down in size. Do I have to save the file, close out and then open the new doc and PLACE it in the document in order for it to keep size? There must be a better way to do this. Basically, how can I drag a photo that is 4x6 over to a new doc while keeping the size at 4x6.

The problem is that Elements 11 won't let me open up another photo at the same time, or let me copy the selected image to clipboard to paste on a different photo.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have PSE 11 and I am creating a Christmas theme with various pictures. I have my main photo with 6 layers including a tree and figures which I can move independantly and the background is the checkerboard as the main layers are turned off with only my selections showing. I also have another photo where I have selected part of it and also turned off the main layers leaving a small part with checkered background. When I have the main photo loaded and drag the other one from the photo bin with the move tool, nothing appears on the main picture. I have already dragged the Christmas tree in the same way and that worked. By the way, all the files are .PSD.

identified the object in photo 1, e.g by using the lasso
stored it by edit/copy (or strg/c)
opened photo 2
edit/insert (or strg/v)
object appears in photo 2, but without the frame it was supposed to come with - and by which I could enlarge / minimize / shift it....
made a mistake or software error?
I have Photoshop Elements 10 which I work with sparingly. I would like to outline a section of the photo (a face) and somehow select it to be the whole photo - in other words to get rid of all background elements. I can outline the area with lasso, but do not know how to just save that area. When I save, the whole original photo is saved. I also tried the magic extractor, which really worked to make just the face and crop everthing else out, but it has a white background the same size as the original photo, which means it is essentially a reactangle with a face in it. I am trying to just get the face so I can paste it into a document, sort of like when people put heads on fake bodies. This is for a church newsletter. I have done this with my old Picture It software, but that was on my old computer. I think I should be able to do this with all the gadgets Photo Shop has, but I must be missing something.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI haven't been able to figure out how to use the Straighten tool without cropping.
I am starting with a full page image with Pixel Dimensions of 9750 x 13050 pixels, and a Document Size of 8.125 x 10.875 inches. I want to use the Straighten tool, and then use the Patch tool to fix the resulting irregularities around the edges.
But no matter what I try, I end up with smaller Pixel Dimensions and a smaller Document Size; for example: 9725 x 13016 pixels and 8.104 x 10.847 inches. This occurs regardless of whether I have the Delete Cropped Pixels boxed checked.
I also tried starting with a Canvas Size of 8.125 x 10.875 inches, and using Place…to bring in the image. But the Straighten process still results in a similar reduction in the Pixel Dimensions and Document Size.
I am accessing the Straighten tool via the Crop tool. Is there any other method to Straighten?
The screenshots below show the original Image Size (top) and the Image Size after Straighten (bottom).

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a very big folder of .txt files that are flattened. They contain various words, but since they have an ugly old effect on them I need to flatten them out.
The text has a wave or an arch, always in a different position. How do I do the following by way of macro:
1) identify the size of arch and it's highest point.
2) then inverse it, so it straightens it out.
I want to apply this to thousands of old headings/headlines. This is why I need to create a macro for this.
I am running Photoshop CS. I have many hundred documents to scan and was going to use the pre loaded "Crop and Straighten" tool under file/automate. My problem is I want to run this over a folder that will save and close, not just one image at a time.
I also want it to do an automatic save using the current file name without adding the word "copy" to it, and not have to type over the file name each time when the save option comes up with "Filename copy.tiff".
I know the Crop and straighten tool is great for putting several images on a scanner and it separating them into individual images, but this is not what I am doing, I have one scan, one document.
So is it possible to run this over a folder of 500+ documents and walk away from it, have all images save and close using the current name, and not fill the desktop up with many opened images that need to be manually closed?
Could anyone tell me how to flatten / straighten an image.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a couple of photos of the sun (700 to be exact) that I'm trying to crop. Doing it manually on each one would be very tedious and so I found the automatic script of Crop & Straighten.
However, even though it does a good crop when I batch process all my snaps using an action with the crop & straighten within it, the photos are also straightened or rotated in this case. Is there any way to avoid the straightening part to work on the images and just use the tool to crop the images automatically ?
