Re: Drop Shadow

Jonathan, Yes, the Clear Default Menu settings item is greyed out. And because of that answer, the following may be moot but, a bit of clarification, as I mis-spoke about a single thing, which I doubt has any real bearing - I initially suggested the two side by sides are full view when I start, but ...

Re: Drop Shadow

I had created "the image" , which was just a blank white image with a black grid, and the mask a day or two earlier. I had actually created a bunch of masks and saved them as images for the same project at that time. I subsequently closed all the images and the program. A day or so later, ...

Re: Drop Shadow

Thanks Jonathan for your reply. I will give the second answer a try (although at this point, I don't really understand the whole thing, but I will see what comes of it). As to the first question - When I wish to do a drop shadow on only a small portion of an image, I will usually already have a mask...

Drop Shadow

2 things - How do I, or can I, maintain the side by side views full image (zoom to fit) during the D.S. operation? I am doing an image where a number of the shadows (and masks) are situated away from where the windows auto zoom into. This means for each application, I have to hit the zoom to fit but...

Re: PW 8 newbie question

And if I might add, one of the components in PWP7 that caused me both grief and value, was the part that tomczak just touched on - that you could complete multiple transformations and have multiple windows that reflected each newer version. The downside to that was - you have multiple windows in the...

Subtract Mask

I am in the process of compositing a number of solid color images, using masks which extend to the each edge. The process entails using multiple numbers of these masks and multiple images. During the process, I have to subtract portions of each mask, using the freehand subtract tool. When doing this...

Re: Mask Transform

And to add, even if I initially click the Display or Preview buttons prior to clicking the New Mask button, the view automatically goes to split screen (and zoomed in).

Mask Transform

Latest version. Tried a search to see if this specific question has been touched on before but the robot in charge of word searches tells me "mask transformation" is too common a term... When using the Masks Transform in Split Screen, both left and right sides start out zoomed in and the e...

Re: IR Photos of Costa Rica and Shropshire

The new site is MUCH better (and the images are actually in focus). Couple comments/questions: Are the infrared first done with an IR camera (or something), then converted to black and white, because many look just like a black and white photo? My two favourite images are the baked mudflats(?) in th...
