Xara :: Using Magic Eraser In PGD2013?
Sep 12, 2012
I have been trying to remove text from photograph but unsuccessfully using the Magic Eraser. I have a photo of my nephew with the text over the image, I am not about infringe copyright but using the image as an exercise. I will not be printing the image. I wondered whether others had success in suing the tool as the videos displaying the tool all seem to generate unbelievable results. Is it just the various grey tones on my nephew's pullover that make it too difficult perhaps?

I scaned an iron on pattern. Now I want to remove the background color which is white. I thought I could use the magic eraser tool. It does a good job for most of the project, but I have to click on every small area. The reason that I want to do this is to being able to print on any color card stock. Is there another way of doing this.

Up in the Xara Xone a discussion cropped up that started us talking about the eraser tool. So I thought I'd get a thread going here where everyone can share tips and tricks regarding the eraser and the shape builder as well
The eraser tool is available in Designer Pro X, and Photo & Graphic Designer 2013 And the Shapebuilder is available in Designer Pro X
To start things off here are a couple of handy tips:
You can force the eraser to produce an opacity mask and non destructively edit vector shapes in two ways. 1. set some softness or 2. group your vector object with it's self.
You can use the H key to toggle the node view on and off . If you have Designer Pro X the shift key toggles between the shape builder and eraser tool for handy editing.

Clarify the use of Magic Erase - I am using Photo & Graphic Designer 2013.When I try to replace an area with another of the same photo it does not work properly with PNG but seems to work almost 90% good with BMP.It looks like the colour is not correct with PNG even thou the Feather = None.
Does this means that Magic Erase should be done with another format than PNG? If there is possible that Magic Erase will not copy the source area colour 100% on any format even if the Feather = None?

I'm using a Wacom Intuos2 tablet with GIMP 2.6.12, and it works fine except as the subject says, the eraser works like a brush. In Photoshop, I don't recall exactly what it does, but I believe switching to the eraser (meaning flipping the pen over to the "eraser" side" switches from the foreground color to the background color, so that it effectively works like an eraser.
How can I do that, or something similar, in GIMP? I've searched everywhere and most of the posts have to do with getting the tablet recognized (check) and implementing pressure (check).

it might be possible to make magic eye puzzles in Photoshop, using a pattern and the Displace filter. I've been trying around, but it doesn't seem to work perfectly, but there are some results. I think maybe it's a bit different to just shifting the pixels round a bit.

I was using my magic wand to select things with no trouble, then began working on something else. When I went back to using the magic wand, it was a rectangle and I couldn't get it to select anything. When I pressed the shift key, it would turn into the wand with a plus sign beside it.

I've recently upgraded to Creative Suite CS3, and after watching the tutorials included in the suite, I realize I don't have, or am not able to find, the magic wand.

I'm want to use photoshop CS3's magic wand tool to make a selection of a colored shape on my background layer.
However when I click the mouse, the wand selects EVERYTHING on the layer. it doesn't matter what my tolerance level is set to. I've tried cranking it down to 0 and I still get everything selected.

I am having trouble with using Red Giants' Magic Bullet photo looks 2 plugin with PS CS6 (32&64).
The standalone program works fine on its own but fails to launch properly from PS's filter menu. It tries to launch the app but then reports an error, an error occurred (12288), Corrupted memory profile, then an error Can't open dest profile. These errors can't be cleared except by going into task manager to kill the app. Photoshop reports the error as Looks Builder failed to launch. Please ensure the application has not been renamed or moved from the install location and then Could not complete the Photo looks command because of a problem with the filter module interface.
I have been in contact with Red Giant but they are now struggling. I can't believe I am the only person that is getting this error but can't find anything specific on Google.
Error 12288 appears to relate to ICC problems.
The only non-standard thing about my installation is that all user data is on drive D & Page file on drive Z.

When I use the magic wand in Photoshop CS5, it selects the entire image, not just the section I'm hovering over. I'm working in a Windows environment.

I have CS4 and am unable to use the wand tool as it used to work.I've checked the color picker settings, and it is always set to point sample, and STILL does this. I've checked and unchecked the anti-alias, contiguous, and sample all layers boxes and set them to every possible combination of the three. I've set the tolerance level to multiple numbers and it does not affect the fact that it selects like this. In fact, setting the tolerance and checking either anti-alias or contiguous does NOT affect how it selects, and it will always select like this. I've found that it is selecting EVERY color/line created, regardless of opacity of the line. I've reset the tool multiple times, reset the color picker multiple times, and reset all tools several times. No affect.
I've tried asking on Tumblr AND on deviantART and have asked Google multiple times since the issue rose, and have seen several fixes for similar problems (none of them exactly like this, as far as I could tell). I've also even gone into the AppData file and deleted the .psp file.
I've changed settings around in Photoshop, and it doesn't seem to affect anything. I really need to use the Magic Wand tool for my artwork, to select shapes in individual layers, so that I may shade them. Another problem with the selection is that whatever I select is aliased, despite the "anti-alias" box being checked.
I realize that I can use the "select pixels" option that shows up when I right click a layer, and it produces the same effect the wand tool ONCE had, but I'm used to using the wand. I'll be using the select pixels option for now.

I've bought and downloaded the Magic Picker 2 color wheel extension for Photoshop, though when I try and install it via the Adobe Extension Manager, I get the error message "You do not have the appropriate permissions required to perform this operation. Contact your system administrator to obtain permission".

I want to select an area with the magic wand, the magic wand icon disappears and there's a rectangle icon by the curser. At that point, the entire image is selected, not just the area I'd like. I've adjusted the tolerance to 70.
I'm using photoshop CS2 with a mac.

I do illustrative site plans for an architecture firm. I frequently use the magic wand to create selections in pdf's created from a CAD system. I usually import them as a smart object so that they may be updated regularly as design changes are made. However, in CS4, I am finding it very difficult for the magic wand to make selections in between lines of a pdf. No matter what I set the tolerance at, it seems to select more than the area that I am trying to select. I recently installed all updates and it worked for one day and then returned to making incorrect selections.

I am working on a project with multiple levels, and multiple xrefs. Problem I m having is that I keep getting these lines, or what looks like possibly a footprint of something? So I go into the xref to turn the layer off, but the lines are nowhere to be found in the xref drawing!? I have been through all the basics like turning all the layers on and off etc... I will attach an image showing the lines.

when I paste a picture from the internet with a white background, I use magic wand on the white then press delete. AND IT LEAVES A WHITE LINE. Disabling anti aliasing does nothing, it will still show.
After I delete it I have to go through with the eraser tool along the whole thing and erase. (Which I did everything so far 'cept the top right of him.

I want to select a small section of an image (say for example, an eye on a person's face), and use the magic wand only within the selection. I don't want it to go beyond the selection, no matter how high the tolerance.

however the eraser tool and other methods of getting to transaperency are not working. Perhaps it is a problem with locked background colours or something, however my eraser tool is defaulted to erase to white not transparent - see picture.
have tried ctrl+shift+alt at start up to restore to factory settings, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the program, but no luck.also when i go to refine edge after a quick selection, there's no transparent option

Eraser and background eraser won't work when I'm in the midst of editing in Photoshop, but if I save the image as a jpg then I can use eraser. Is there something wrong with my Photoshop settings or something I'm not doing right? I have version CS 5 Extended 12.1 x64.

having an issue with photoshop's eraser: the outline is not showing (the little line-circle-thing that shows the area to be erased). This happens for both the paintbrush and pencil selections of the eraser, but not for the block version
I tried changing the dimensions and such, in case it was too small, etc, and I had her restart photoshop to see if that fixed it -
