|
|
I imported a targa in photoshop and begin to make a background using layers.The image was created in "Maya" and had alpha channel also.After i imported in Photoshop ,i removed the black background with the alpha channel.My problem is a dark outline generated when i create a 2nd layer and start painting the background.See in the photo for details.
How can i fix this? Can anyone help me?

If you select the object with say the magic wand then go to select/modify/contact try 1 or 2 pixles (it will depend on the size) then delete it will "trim" off the outside edge, I'm assuming here your working with a transparent suround to your object? Wayne |

In his situation, you would click the magic wand on the outside and hit "expand" 1 or 2 pixels. _________________ My Photography Website |

The solution is: select the layer and from the menu Layer >>> Matting >>> Remove black matte ,removes that dark outline.
Found it in another forum!  _________________ http://www.freewebs.com/metabaron |

Bedheadben. If you have the object selected it's contract the selection (as I said) Wayne |
