Photoshop :: Painting Beyong Selection Outline
Nov 18, 2005i'm using phothsop and i'm trying to give an existing picture a border.
what i do:
ctrl-a
select->border->2px
edit->fill->forground colour(white)
the 2px white border appears ok, however, the border goes beyond the selected area (dotted lines) by about 1px. The extra, unwanted part of the border was a semi transparent white border.
I've noticed that in the past, there have been times where i've selected a part of the picture and used the brush tool to paint in that specific part, but i always ended up painting a bit beyond the selection outline with a semi-transparent colour
Photoshop :: Dragging With Path Or Direct Selection Too Leaves Outline
Feb 9, 2013I'm experiencing this incredibly annoying behavior in PS over the past 10 days. Dragging with a selection tool (or shape tools) used apply a thin dotted outline only when the mouse was depressed—very useful for knowing what area would be selected. Now I don't see that outline until I release the mouse button (or stylus) at which point the outline persists (see attached screenshot). The behavior is sometimes corrected with a restart, other times not.
I'm on a macbook pro 2.4GHz with 16GB of RAM running 10.8.2 and CS6 13.1.2 x64 Extended.

View 1 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Having Trouble With A Rounded Box
Jun 8, 2006I have a box I made with the square selection tool. I added a 25 px feather to it to give it nice rounded corners.
I did a paint bucket fill inside the selection and it doesn't fill JUST the insides like I thought it'd do. It does MOST of it but it blends outwards towards the sides of the selection so it's not one solid color.
ALSO when I flood fill a few times, it EXTENDS passed my selection box into the rest of the window!
My question is, how do I make a selection box with rounded corners flood fill COMPLETELY?

Photoshop :: Trouble With My Animated .gif
Aug 26, 2004I've made animated .gifs before without this problem: I have taken 12 seperate .gif images, converted them to RGB mode, dropped them all into the same Photoshop file, and then jumped to Imageready to create frames for each layer. Upon clicking "Save Optimized As", I get the following warning:
"Because JPG, PNG, and WBMP do not support animation, Imageready will save only the current frame."
I don't understand what I've missed. All 12 original images were .gif. I had to convert them to RGB mode in order to create a 12 layer file, but don't think that is what is causing this issue.
Any ideas?

View 2 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Trouble Creating An Action
Apr 11, 2006I'm trying to create an action with an F shortcut, so when I save a file that I've edited, it saves it with an '_ed' after it.
When I've done the action, it just changes the whole file name, instead of adding the '_ed'. I know there is a batch option for this, but I was wondering how I could go about doing this on a file by file basis.
Photoshop :: Trouble With Transferring Activation
Jan 4, 2008I just bought a new laptop computer....I had Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed on my desktop computer...have not used it much at all. So, just yesterday I did the "Transfer Activation "thing". I did as instructed...Installed it on my laptop...(this new laptop is an HP Pavilion with 2GB, Intel Centrino, Light Scribe, and Windows Vista).
When I was through installing it (it said I installed successfully)....then I was told to register it... ...I did so...using my new address (of the laptop)...It told me It registered successfully.
I then proceeded to download updates....when all was said and done, and rebooted...said the updates were installed successfully as were the registration, and updates.
Photoshop :: Background - Save As Trouble
Aug 15, 2009I'm creating a 3D text logo using CS4 Illustrator and Photoshop. I created the logo in Illustrator, and copied it into Photoshop to apply color using hue and fill settings. I used the wand tool to select the top of the letters, then changed the hue on the sides, then filled the tops with a different color. I created a new layer for the selected tops. I want a transparent background, and I want to save the file as a Gif. However, when I flatten the image, I get a white background. Somehow, a white background sneaked in. Also, when I go to save the file, there is no option for a .gif. I saved it as a jpeg. But then Dreamweaver would not display it. It only showed a samll icon representing the graphic, but wouldn't display it.
1. How can I avoid having my transparent background become white?
2. Why am I not getting the option to save as a .gif?
3. why Dreamweaver wouldn't open the jpeg? Could it be size? File too wide. In the past Dreamweave automatically resizes to accomodate wide files.
Photoshop :: Trouble Exportig>opening File...
Jan 16, 2009I bought this photoshop magazine, and was trying to follow a tutorial for scanning in an image. (btw i have searched for this, and found nothing). So I scanned it and opened it in illustrator, and did live trace and everything to get the outline, then I exported it as psd (as the tut. said), but when I opened it in photoshop, the white background was gone. It was an outline of my drawing on the gray and white checkerboard background. Now in the tutorial it said to use the magic wand tool to select all the white, and delete it (in illustrator) so I thought maybe that was it, but it wasnt. It still opened like that without deleting the white areas.

View 1 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Trouble Applying Color/layer Effects To An Image With Transparent Background.
Jul 30, 2005I'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.
AutoCad 3D :: How To Print Solid Crisp Outline For Outline Of Arch
Jan 2, 2013Currently self teaching myself using 3D on a current project I'm working on. A cable stayed bridge having a span of 30 metres supported primarily by a single diagonal parabolic arch. The arch is square in section but rotated so it looks like a diamond along the arch length. To draw the arch I have drawn the arch sections at intervals along the centreline where it changes size in section 1.4, 1.2, 1.1 and 1.0m. I have then used the loft command to draw the arch using the drawn sections as the objects to loft through.
For the GA drawing I have a plan view and elevation. When printing the generated/ lofted lines are are pixelated and not very crisp or clear (not a solid line).
I have tried adjusting the visual style and shade plot, for each of the options and none of them are giving me a solid crisp outline for the generated arch. I have also had a little play using the visual styles manager but nothing seems to work and also tried maximum quality in the print options.
What do I need to do to print a solid crisp outline for the outline of the arch please, are you able to select the edges of the square and convert them to solid 2d/ 3d lines.

View 3 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Coloring Outline Drawing And Removing The Outline?
Jan 10, 2013I have a black-and-white outline drawing that I want to color in using the "Bucket Fill" tool. There are two things I'd like to do to make it easier:
1. Is there a way to prevent Bucket Fill from leaking through small gaps in the drawing? Usually what happens is, I fill in one region, and then suddenly a much larger region gets filled in. I then have to examine the borders of the region for a small opening, close the gap with black, and then try again. Is there a feature that lets me say e.g. "Don't fill through gaps less than 4 pixels wide"?
2. Once I'm done coloring, I want to remove the black outline to make a more realistic, less cartoony image. However, it's tedious to go and paint over every segment of the outline with the color of its adjoining regions. What I want to do is essentially: Replace every black pixel in the image with the color of the closest non-black pixel. Is there a feature that does this?
Also, if there are third-party plugins that do these things, that would work just as well.
Photoshop :: Trouble Reinstalling Photoshop Cs3
Feb 13, 2009Recently, cs3 has stopped working for me. One day I tried to open it and it wouldn't respond. I tried uninstalling it and then reinstalling it and it didn't work - it says failed to install Adobe Photoshop CS3. All the shared components reinstall, but CS3 doesn't.
I downloaded the trial version of CS4 to see if that would work, but again it told me that Adobe Photoshop CS4 has failed to install. And again, all the shared components managed to install.
Photoshop :: Why Vector Selection Tool (white Arrow) Change Layer Selection To Another
Sep 1, 2013I have been continually annoyed, when creating a vector mask-heavy document, with trying to select vector mask points by dragging a rectangle only to find that it instead selects a layer higher up which has a larger vector mask.
The only workaround is to manually select the points of my mask or to drag a rectangle from outside the canvas, meaning I have to zoom out or scroll to the edge - sometimes annoying if I am zoomed in quite far.
I know that the move tool can be set to automatically select a layer, depending on what part of the image is clicked, but why is there not an option to turn this off for vector editing?
Photoshop :: Selection / Patch - Select Blue With Quick Selection Tool?
Dec 10, 2012If you look closely in the attached picture, there is a spot of light blue on the player's helmet, that looks like a mistake (think it should look like the grass behind it)...though it actually may be part of his helmet.
Regardless, I'd like to take it out. My idea was to select the blue with the quick selection tool, then bring that selection out to the grass, select the grass with that size/shape of selection, copy/paste and then bring the grass selection into the blue part so it looks like grass in what was the blue part.
The problem is I don't seem to be able to move the selection without taking the blue with it (so it's not an empty selection and therefore can't select a piece of the grass.)
Photoshop :: Selection On Sliders And Curves Altered When Click Off Them After Initial Selection
Sep 13, 2012I have Photoshop CS5 on a Mac OS 10.7.4 My problem is that when I am using curves or a slider, my selection does not stay in the same place. For example, I chose the number 8 on a slider, after I release my selection it will either go one number after or before my selected number. I have had this problem since I got my computer, December 2011, but it has only recently started to frustrated me because of having to use Photoshop a little more than I usually do.

Thus far I have tried channel selections and the calculations tool + all the normal quick selection tools and I just cant get it to work without spending hours adjusting things. The end effect I need to achieve is a perfect white background without loosing any of the detail if possible. On a side note I have also tried taking the photo on blue, green, black and white backgrounds but due to the number of colours present in the products its just not working for me.
