 |
|
I found some instructions that were for Gimp users and I want to do the same in PS and I am a bit of a rookie. The first instruction was:- Colours->
Components->Decompose RGB. This I believe gave a monochrome image and three layers Red, Green and Blue. The other instruction was:- Select a layer and add a layer mask greyscale copy. There are some more items which I think I can manage.
Thank you for any help. |

Elements has an easy Decompose RGB option, unfortunately Photoshop has the channel mixer and the channel tabs so you have to do the hard yards.
Creating 3 duplicate layers and using the channel mixer to drop the two unwanted channels back down to zero for each layer should produce the same result as decompose RGB.
Layer mask grey-scale copy sounds like copying a layer into the mask channel. Select your layer, create an empty mask and click on the channels tab then turn the mask channel visibility to on and paste your image into it. |
