View 9 Replies View RelatedI have the latest version of CS6 on my Mac, OS X 10.8.x.  I have found a bug where Quick Mask is not always activated when you select it. Meaning, you select Quick Mask and the proper pen, color, etc., and it won't paint in the mask (default = red).  It also doesn't appear to be actually /doing/ a mask either, so I don't think this is a display/driver issue.

What i mean, currently I am a realtor taking pictures of homes that I am showing. Many times (usually everytime), there is a sign of the home builder advertising who built the home. I am wanting to know how i can edit/crop the sign out of the photograph when i take a frontal picture of the house with the sign in the picture.

I am fairly new to photoshop and imageready. I saw some tutorials on animation and have one made the one attached.
The question I had was is there a way to make the letters dissolve or do other actions like those on powerpoint. Where the letter slowly fades away or something to that extent.
How do you change the red color of the quick mask to another color. Im editing a photo and the background has a lot of yellow in it. Its hard to tell whats been masked and what hasnt. I would like to change the masking color to black or blue.

I have recently purchased my first Photoshop editing program I am a novice to both
As I enjoy my photography I also love playing with the editing side of my hobby, so I recently purchased Photoshop Elents 6 and ditched my old built-in editing program. I have just started playing with changing the background to studio portrait photos, no I am not a pro just a simple amateur, although I am hoping to do some portrait photography as a pastime (I used to dabble a bit in that field with weddings many many years ago). I have been scouring the tutorials on the web for assistance and come across mention of 'Quick mask'. This would be very helpful to me with my photo background changing, but I don't seem to have it in my program Looking into it further, I am wondering if I have purchased the wrong Photoshop program. The mention of 'Quick mask' refers to Photoshop 6, which I thought I had, but can someone explain to me the differences between the various Photoshop programs as I am confused as to why my later version has not got what the earlier Photoshop 4 has.
I take digital images in RAW format, usually quite large, and then open and save the image as a large format Tiff file. At that point, I have to resize the image for the purpose at hand. Here goes...
I normally take the image down to roughly 4x6 inches (I keep the "Constrain Proportions" box checked) and desire a final resolution of 300dpi. Because I'm starting with a much larger image also at 300dpi or higher, this isn't a problem. However, I'm unsure about checking the "resample image" box.
My question is, should I check this box? I'm going to insert my desired resolution dpi regardless, so is it necessary to check the box or should I leave it unchecked? I'm starting to think that the purpose of leaving it checked is to perform roughly the same function as the "constrain proportions" box - to allow the software to automatically resample the image based on the resizing I do. But again, I have a particular resolution in mind and so I'm wondering if it's okay to just uncheck the box and insert my desired resolution. Or, even leave it checked but just go ahead and insert my desired dpi resolution as planned.
i can only find the quick selection tool. What i really need is the selection tool that only selects what you want it to and not everything around it. where can i find this?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to use the quick selection tool to take part of an image out and combine it with another but when i click to make the first selection a "Could not use the Quick Selection because the result would be too big." message shows up. I havent even made a selection so how would it determine if it's too big? I just don't get it.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThis issue has been around for the last 4 versions at least, Quick Mask stops working, I am getting fed up with having tio reset photoshop to its defaults, because this means that it takes me a good 30 min to reset all of my settings again, and as this has now happened 4 times today, it is costing me money, at least CS3 was a little bit more reliable than CS4, I certainly will not be upgrading our copies of Photoshop.
Has anyone got a simple way to get Quick Mask working again without loosing the other settings from Photoshop...
Or does anyone know why this happens? My system is 4 x Quad Core CPU, running 16Gb RAM and 2 x 8800 Video Cards on x64 Windows XP, so it cannot be down to memory.
I'm running Photoshop CS4 on Vista with 4G RAM. Even when working on a relatively small picture (34M/69M), I get an error when trying to use Quick Select. The message says "could not complete your request because there is not enough memory". I am not running any other applications and I am allowing Photoshop to use 80% of my RAM. I have a 700G scratch disk. What gives?

I do quite a bit of stuff in hi rez (300 dpi) switching back and forth between actual pixel view and fit on screen modes. Recently my "fit on screen" mode wants to keep getting bigger and bigger and no longer snaps back to the correct screen size. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
The other question should be pretty simple. I want to change the default blending options. Things like stroke, inner and outter glow color etc.
I must have 'done' something to change how it works because now when I use it, the pixels are not completely selected.
I press the quick mask button and paint the area i want to mask. Then when I have finished, I go back to normal mode. I usually push 'SHIFT' + 'CTRL' + 'I' to invert my selection and then delete everything I didn't mask however, now when I try to invert, I get the message 'No pixels are more than 50% selected'.
I run SC3 on a PC. The other day I did something that has made it so my quick mask selection no longer works but I do not know what it was. What happens is after in go into the quick mask mode (tap the q key) and with the brush color the section I wish to mask; I then tap the q key again to exit the quick mask mode but the marching ants surround the entire photo not my selection. When in the quick mask mode it does show on the title bar that I am in the quick mask mode and when I tap q again that I am going back to normal mode.

When this is done does the selection borders try to blend with the back ground or will they try to blend with the layer 1 as it is the layer just behind the layer 2. In case if there is no background, I mean if all three are layers then what happens?
