 |
|
I am currently having issues with vector masking on Photoshop CS4.
I am trying to crop a persons images out from a white background,
but when I do, they get masked and the background is revealed.
I don't know if there was a button I pushed, or a setting to change,
but this is how I have normally cropped all the images I do, and I
don't know why it is masking the inverse now.
Does anyone know how to change this? |

Ctrl+I - Invert, whilst on the mask or Crtl+Shift+I to invert when a selection.
Just remember white reveals black hides.

I realized I had to push the add to path button on the tool bar on top when I have the path selection tool open. |

Once again, must be on a lean spell, shoulda read it was vector, sorry for the misunderstanding on my part.
