Ive just spent 20 minutes polygonal lassoing round an image and after I'd closed the lasso shape I found I'd accidentally set feather on 34 rather than 1.
Is it possible to remove the feather option at this point, or better still change it to 1, or am I going to have to re-lasso it all again?
I've tried adjusting the feather number but that doesn't do anything.
if I select area with lasso tool with like 10px feather, is there way to lower that feather value after that?
Select -> Feather: that only makes feather value larger.
Where can I find feather option and smooth/refine edges option in Adobe Element 7.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've recently been working with a large, simple drawing in which I am trying to separate the different shapes into their own layers. I've been using the polygonal lasso tool, and my plan is to select the desired shapes and "right-click > layer via copy." However, twice already has the lasso selection closed by itself before I could complete the selection.
I am using Adobe Photoshop CS3 on a Dell Windows Vista platform.
I have Adobe CS4 for macs. Just today, every time I enclose an area with my polygonal lasso tool, it stopped closing the area and instead gives me the message "No pixels are more than 50% selected.
The selected edges will not be visible." I must have accidentally pressed something by mistake that makes the lasso tool not work anymore but I don't know what. Do I need to reset Photoshop? Any ways to reset it? I tried holding option,command shift but it still did not reset my Photoshop to its original settings.I also rebooted my computer several times with no success.
If I make a section with the marquee tool, and then Select > feather 100 px, I get a smooth rectangular gradient.If I use the same Marquee selection, preceded by feathering in the Options Bar, I get an oval selection reflecting the feathering.I observe the feathering by creating a layer mask, or by dragging the selected Layer into another document.

I used the magnetic and polyganol lasso tool to remove sections, after I drew a section, I pressed enter and then backspace, which made the section turn gray. But now it's just gray, on the same layer, and I can't do anything about it. I wanted an empty background under the image.
I can't use the magic selection tool because it DOES NOT select around the image properly (it selects INSIDE of the image) not where I cropped it out. And the magic selection tool is crappy. It leaves zig zagged white spots so why would I use that.
I cropped the entire thing out, and now I can't even see it without the background?
I cannot stand it when I make a new layer in Illustrator and the color hint becomes yellow. This usually happens on the third new layer into every project. I can go in and manually change it from yellow to the ten plus other colors, but I just want yellow completely out of the list. It's awful to look at, and I think every other color is easier.

I'm trying to remove the blitz shadow from head and body on a white/grey background, with the Lasso tool. The adjustments with Brightness/Contrast in the chosen area works like a charm, however I always get a nasty pixeled or whitelined boarder going constantly around the edited area; no matter if it boarders to a black area (shoulder) or a gray one (wall behind person).
I've tried to edit the primary/secondary color, with no luck. Any way to make this boarder "blend in" to the new brightness area - or to just remove it? The edited area is somewhat identical to the old background, so there is no natural reason to why it should be a constant boarder.
Or is it a better (and easy!) way to remove blitz shadow from a black and white picture?
as an alternative to using the magic wand to remove a color to transparency (which leaves fine detail, say in a line drawing, in a very sorry state) i saw someone use the multiply function in layer options to remove all white from a greyscale image leaving black lines over transparency. neat,

I need to open a PDF file that has multiple pages. On "FileOpen" it comes up with Import PDF. There are 21 pages. I know how to highlight all the pages so they all load at once. Do to the volume of work this is impractical. Control+A will not work for this.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded to Photoshop CS3 from (CS2)
In previous versions (CS2 and earlier), if you select a part of an image, including borders, and then apply the feather command, then the selection edges along the borders were not feathered but the selection edge inside the picture (and bordering another part of the picture) was feathered. (The selection may be a rectangle or an irregular shape. In either case it is just the selection edge that is INSIDE the image that is feathered, and the selection edges along the border of the image are not feathered.)
Result: you get a rectangular selection with one edge feathered. (Or with a slightly irregular shape if the selection border within the image is not a straight line.)
Very useful if e.g. if you want to darken the sky in a high contrast sunny-day image.
Now to the problem:
In CS3 feathering occurs on the entire selection, including those parts of the selection that are along the edges of the image.
Result: you get an oval shape selected where all edges are feathered. And you cannot use that to darken e.g. the sky.
I'm trying to get the feather on my selections to retract instead of expand. With any of the marquee tools, I can set the feather in the options bar at the top to n pixels and the selection area retracts by that amount. But if I use the magic wand tool or Select -> Color range... I don't have the feather option on the option bar, but I can go into Select -> Feather... and set it that way. Unfortunately, it seems the same value I enter in there has the opposite effect of the marquee tools' feather. That is, the feather EXPANDS by that amount. I can't enter a negative value since it doesn't allow values below 0.2.
