Hi Guys

Is there a way to make a selection, (rectangle, circle, brush, etc). and then drop the opacity of the selection just like you would adjust a complete layer???

Thanks
Mike

I don't know exactly what you want to do, but there is a way:
make a mask from that selection and then edit the levels of the mask, or even paint on it with the brush... make it softer edges with a blur.. etc

You can also change the opacity of the mask with the refine mask command.
