Photoshop Elements :: How To Crop A Photo Into Oval With Cookie Cutter Tool
Jun 18, 2013
I want to crop a photo into an oval with the cookie cutter tool. As soon as I drag the oval from the center out the photo is then covered with white and gray squares so I can no longer see the photo.
I am unable to make a shape from a photo using the Cookie Cutter Tool. I duplicated the photo. Clicked on cookie cutter icon. Created shape. Clicked on green check mark. The new layer is transparent. I cannot make the shape appear.
Having trouble with the cookie cutter tool. I duplicate my image, select the cookie cutter tool, draw the shape onto my image and click the green check box. That layer then goes transparent with the white and grey checkerboard pattern. I've reset the tool a number of times and doesn't change anything.
ISSUE: When cropping a photo, the crop tool highlights the photo correctly, but when the crop is activated it resized the photo to about 1 pixel, no matter how large or small the selection crop was.
Actions took: I fully installed all the updates, when unsuccessful, I repaired the installation, when that was unsuccessful, I completely uninstalled and then reinstalled Photoshop.
i have an image on my workspace. its a rectangular image. Now, I want to crop an oval out of it. So everything else around it will dissapear. How do i do this? I was thinking the CUT tool, but that only cuts from point to point.
I'm trying to use the rect marquee tool to do a selection and then crop a photo but when I do nothing happens.
A couple of strange things have/are happening:
-At one point, while I was in transform selection I there was added space around the marquee, which became the new edge, as opposed to the marquee itself.
-The marquee is in the shape of a rounded rectangle.
I need to crop pictures of horses to fit within a specified oval shape and size but i dont know how to do it within the corel program, i print it out on special vinyl then cut it on my Roland GX-24 and press it on to an item of clothing and i need to get 2 horses on 1 sheel of paper.
I need to crop a photo with a circular shape. At the end of the day the picture has to be circular. How do I do that? At the course I learned how to crop with or without proportions, but I want to crop with different shapes...
I am editing photo's of documents and I want to make them all the same size after cropping so that when combined into a single pdf they will all be the same size.What is the best way to set the crop feature so my photos will all be the same size as the original paper document they were copied from?
In the old days, one could just use the crop tool and, while drawing crop lines, check the perspective box if you found that you needed to change the perspective. With CS6 if you start with the crop tool, and find you want to change the perspective, you have to change tools to the new perspective crop tool. In the process, you have to tell the newly opened dialog box that you don't want to crop, to get to the perspective tool, which now has reset to its defaults. You've lost your cropping and you have to start over.
I'm trying to convert my barmitzvah album to jpeg so it can be displayed in a photo frame. To do this I've scanned each page at home and put them on CD because I have to go to the library to use Photoshop.
(before anyone says I violated copyright by scanning professional photos without permission 1) The photography studio no longer exists, 2) Photos were made prior to 1989 and do not have the required copyright information per this notice.)
Originally I was going to just scan each page and be done with it but due to the size of the pages and the scanners I have access to I would have to do two passes and stitch them together. When I tried doing that the subjects of the photos lined up but not the background so now I want to remove the background.
I had no problem with some pictures but the one is the first I've had an issue with. Using the Magic Extractor it takes out almost all of the background see this image which is left from the original.
I've tried using the oval tool to select the inner part but can't get it lined up correctly. Where should I be starting from?
I'm new to LR4 and after I move the photo corners to use the crop tool, the white hand doesn't appear when I hover over the photo to then move it around....
When I select content using the crop tool then hit enter (or the green checkmark) the picture just disappears. This happened all of a sudden a few days ago. I can do COMMAND Z to undo and the picture reappears. But every time I crop the picture disappears and the layer thumbnail just turns brown.
I crop a picture and when I print it white lines appear on the print . When I print the uncropped version of the same picture I get no lines . How can I get it to stop.
I am a labtech at a community college and look after 48 mac pros in which the students use the entire creative suite. (I only mention this becuase any answers need to consider variations in system settings or photoshop settings. college students get into everything!)
But the issue is when you select the crop tool and enter a custom constraint and crop
The image size is sometimes a full 2 inches off of what you set as a crop?! I havn't run into this before
[I do know you can use the drop down box and use {size and resolution} but I want to know why it doesnt work under custom and unconstrained]
I have a rectangular image. Is it possible to use the "Eclipse tool", and make a oval shape..and take my rectangular image, and completely conformed to an oval shape, no longer showing the rectangular corners (the whole image totally conformed to OVAL).
Second question...with GIMP, can one take an image, and make the edges look like there tattered, or worn?
