drag the image INSIDE a selection, like with MSPaint? I find it really ironic that I can't find anything on this, since it seems pretty straightforward. I've used other editing software before, and it had a 'clipping' option, but I'm not seeing that anywhere here.

This only occurs in 8-bit mode, when I turn the image to 32-bit it show all colors correctly. But in 32-bit mode I cannot save to web. If I finish the image in 32-bit and then downgrade it to 8-bit, the black parts return.

I've got many pictures with the wrong GPS coordinates and want to move them around. The most logical thing to me would be to just drag the icon on the map to the right location but that only moves the map and not the icon. I don't know the exact coordinates, I can only find the rigth location by looking on the map.

This morning, my Selection Tool (the filled-in arrow) is acting like a Direct Selection Tool (the hollow arrow), but only when I click and drag on a group. It ends up select the anchors within the group rather than the whole group itself.
I've checked my preferences, quit and relaunched Illustrator a few times, and nothing seems to fix it. The problem briefly went away a few minutes ago, but came back when I quit and relaunched for good measure.
It's happening in Illustrator CS 5.1. I have CS6, and that version works fine, but I'm waiting on some plugins to be updated for it, so I'd like to use CS 5.1. I'm also running the latest Suitcase Fusion 4.
If I make a selection using any of the Selection Tools then I can drag the selection with the same tool except for the Rectanguar Marque Tool (RMT). If I make a selection using the RMT then try to drag it then all I get is another selection. Photoshop CS5 on Windows 8. How to revert to the default situation where I can drag the selection, or has my installation got corrupted somehow ?

View 7 Replies View RelatedSelecting or filling a region of non-uniform color is a common need. Adjusting tolerance is one approach, but I find that it is often problematic. Sometimes you have to play with the tolerance to get the right value. (New paint bucket features described for 4.0 should work with this.) Other times there is no single tolerance value that will give the desired results.
I wish that the paint bucket would simply behave like a real paint bucket in the sense that I could drag it through adjacent regions to fill them all with the same color value. This would give the same result as clicking in each of these regions in turn, but it would be faster and easier, especially in cases involving small or narrow bands of color that are difficult to distinguish visually. I come across such situations frequently. The same thinking would apply to the magic wand.
I imagine accomplishing this by perhaps holding down Ctrl or some other modifier key as I do my dragging. This would not interfere with expected behavior by people who have trouble clicking without moving the mouse.
Why does making a selection inside of a smart object (say with the rectangular marquis tool) disable Free Transform?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm confused about using the smudge tool inside a selection and I don't know if it's a lack of knowledge or bug within Gimp 2.8..
I paint a blue circular area with a thick black border around it. I fuzzy select the blue in the middle. I dodge one side and burn the other. I leave the selection where it is already and I want to smudge the blue hues to make a smoother transition. If I start the smudge from outside the selection, it will pull black into the mix.
Is this supposed to happen? Shouldn't the selection keep the black from being pulled in? If not, why not?
I've also noticed that occasionally(it's random, I don't know what I've changed or what) if I'm zoomed in, that some pixels outside the selection will change color if smudging outwards. It's only within maybe 2 or 3 pixels outside it.
I have determine that my AutoCad 2009 will allow me to drag/drop layers to an existing Group Layer Filter, but it will not allow me to right click on the Group Filter>Select Layers>Add.

View 0 Replies View RelatedThought I'd force myself to use CS6 on a new project. I want to select multiple objects using "Option-drag", in the Layer Panel, but it doesn't work as it does in CS5.
Is there a different shortcut for selecting multiple contiguous objects using the Layer Panel, in CS6? Of course, I mean "Select" not "highlight".
I routinely add paths to existing Live Paint Groups, by dragging a path that is outside the group, into the LP group. But AI won't let me drag the "selection icon" from a nested layer, into an existing LP Group. Why?
It seems I'm requesting the same action, but AI won't allow the icon to be dragged into the group. I have to either open the layer and drag the objects directly, or drag the objects into the main layer, then into the Live Paint Group. I think this is an interface flaw.
FYI… I realize I could jump into the Live Paint Group using Isolation mode, but that takes extra steps and makes the template less useful.
How do I drag to select over the top of objects without selecting and moving the objects under the mouse when I begin the "drag to select" motion?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a task that I repeat all the time, where I have about 20 digital photos that are all taken of something the same size, at the same magnification, but not centered identically. I then need similarly centered, identical size and shape cropped images for all of the images. In Photoshop, a friend with the exact same task solves this by opening all of the images, making a rectangular selection of the appropriate size and shape by eye on the first image, and then dragging this rectangular selection from this first image into each other open images and hand-positioning in each image as he drags it in, so that all of the selections for cropping the images are the same shape and size, and can be individually positioned, rapidly. This exact solution is perfect for this task, and although it works great in Photoshop, selections can't be dragged intact from image to image in the same way in gimp 2.6.11 on ubuntu 11.04/gnome 2.32.1/linux 2.6.38-8 generic , so I am looking for a way to accomplish something similar.
