Layers of blurred Portrait perfect align so fake look

I use PSE10, but PSE14 (who I am on the train for 30 days) has the same problem: in the perfect Portrait, if you use the soft brush on a layer, it creates multiple edges and when flattened, looks really fake - so I don't see how it can be useful. What's the point?

Try this:

  1. Open the photo file in the Expert tab
  2. Duplicate the background layer
  3. Go to filter > blur or filter > Surface blur and apply the background copy layer
  4. Apply a mask the background copy layer and left click on the mask (the white rectangle)
  5. Paint with a black brush where you want an object to stay strong/focus. If you go too far, paint with a white to correct brush

Let us know if that's what you want.

  • [JDev12c, ADF] Perfectly align "Input Text" (no label) of different types in gridRow/cell

    Hallo,

    I have a panelGridLayout with 2 columns and lines.

    In the second column, I create - by dragging and dropping the of a VO Istance - for each line an ADF input without label text.

    At design time, and also when running the fields in the second column are aligned on the left but the fields whose type is "Date" or "BigDecimal" starts some pixel after the fields whose type is "String".

    2nd column
    I_____________| (String)
    I_____________| (String)
    I_____________| (BigDecimal)
    I_____________| (String)
    I_____________| (Date)

    I tried, but I couldn't not perfectly align all the fields to the left. GridRows and GridCell have the same properties. I guess it depends on the type of the field...

    You kindly help me?

  • How can I went perfectly align/justify this text?

    My client is drag guides and wants the razor sharp alignment on the left margin.

    You need a workaround solution to align the first letter and the left edge (letter 'B' on your example). Check here: https://indesignsecrets.com/removing-space-along-left-edge.php

    As small black line that goes to the bottom of the screen when I put two bars/clips side by side without overlapping one another.

    For the last two days, my Adobe first CC did not do that and I try to guess it. This has caused some clips to overlap. This slows down my editing because I have to make sure that the place is perfect, and sometimes very difficult to do manually.

  • How to read data in Adobe Flash and align it to look like it's column?

    I am doing an application that already exists, but I add a few improvements. I'll explain what this app is. There is a server and client side. The client side adds data to the Access database (the columns are time, name and surname). On the other computer is an application that displays this data (I don't know if he reads a database or another type of file, but I did a database). I know that server-side plays an .swf Flash file. This screen stays for about 30 seconds and then the application plays videos in the video player installed (ads, this model is connected to a TV) for some time and then the screen goes back to the display of the data.

    I'm 18 and I have very limited knowledge of Adobe Flash (I learned something at school). I've done completely client-side app. I now how to create server-side. My main problems are: how to connect to Adobe Flash to the database (is it possible to transfer this data to any other file that can be connected to the Flash?), how to read data from database for Flash and how to display it. I don't want to display the data in the grid. In the application that already exists, each word is like a new text (tool in Flash) and it is aligned. Is it possible to add a loop that creates new texts and plays database cell? How to refresh the Flash screen?

    I know it's a very complex issue, but your help would be very appreciated. I did on the client side in Delphi. If you need more information or if you do not understand something of my explanation, don't bother to ask. Thank you!

    You can transfer data back and forth between Flash and database on a server with PHP as the intermediary.  If you are looking for Gioogle use terms like 'AS # PHP MySQL tutorial' (fillin 2 or 3 for the ' # '), you should be able to find something to help you along there.

    What about adding new textfields and harmonizing, it depends on what version of as you use.  In AS3, you use just...

    var tField = new TextField();

    tField.x = a value to match.

    addChild (tField)

    As far as refreshing goes, this would require removing all Textfields you added and re-create new ones like you did the first time.  Yet once, it depends AS version that you use.  In AS3, you can use removeChild()

  • Problem with tab in InDesign CS6 stops

    Hello.

    2.140.753

    DOSIS seems to be a font .ttf with proportional figures (and a glyph alternative available for the digit 1). It is not appropriate for work in a table where you want numbers aligned vertically.

  • Animated - gif align multiple layers

    I create a gif animated turning in PS. Now I have about 37 layers, where I increment the angle of each layer with 10 degrees from the previous.

    @JJMack. I don't know how to rotate the layer without frame old copy of the new position of rotation... This is why I used copies of layers

    Copy you the layer and rotate. The layer must be perfectly aligned with the center of a square of 1:1 aspect ratio of canvas. Guidelines have been added 50% horizontal and vertical, three have been added a 50% to 49% and 51%. Then using the elliptical tool made fashionable trace a circle path designed by holding down the Alt key would be so the path to the Center and now the SHIFT key for the ellipse would be limited to a circle. You click the line 50% 50% crossed guide the mouse pointer snaps on and you slide the first circle of Otter.  You then assign the path mode to subtract and drag the inner circle.  Your path is now a ring. Then, you pass the rectangle tool, and subtract a rectangle path using lines 49% and 51%. Your path is now two arcs. Create two layers of filled shape colors in the removal of the ring 1/2 of the layer if you have two colorful arcs. Rastersize both and merge the two layers int one.  You have now you arches lined up from the Center.  Then its simple dupe layer action turn the layer 10 degrees the previous layer select turn off visibility select layer to the front.  Play this action until you layers 36 ring required. Create a frame in the animation have Photoshop make frames from layers using option drop-down animation of the image palette.  Remove the first IK frameworks and turn on the visibility of IK layer in which to present the first image. Lights in all frames. Save you it to the web the animated gif. PSD file http://mouseprints.net/old/dpr/ik.psd also tried to use a smart object layer ring less lose quality by turning the layer but there seems to be movement in the rotation.  Photoshop can be a problem dealing wit the transparency in the layer and the break in the circle. http://mouseprints.NET/old/DPR/ikso.PSD so I put all the layers of the ring in a group and masked group with a vector mask. http://mouseprints.NET/old/DPR/iksomask.PSD the best tool you have when you use Photoshop is the grey matter between your ears let it do its thing, it can even surprise you sometimes.

  • Align layers to the selection within the artboard does not not in 20151114.r.301 x 64

    A very annoying bug has been introduced since the last update:

    If you perform the following steps in a work plan

    (1) make a selection

    (2) select a layer in the layers panel

    (3) layer > align layers to selection > (al six options)

    The layer is not aligned to the selection, but to the artboard instead! Is anyone have a work around?

    By aligning the selection is essential for the harmonization of layers in a drawing or model. I hope that Adobe will solve this ASAP!

    Screen Shot 2015-12-02 at 16.03.07.png

    This is a bug.

    It's a side effect of change where we allowed layers be aligned with work plans parent; We does not check for an existing selection mask before allowing the artboard to be a widening of the entire alignment.

    Fix is in preparation. Can't comment on the ETA for you, unfortunately. Just know that it is in the pipeline.

    My apologies for the inconvenience.

  • Elements don't align layers

    Hey guys,.

    I'm new to photoshop and come across a problem that put an end to my project. I try to paste a layer on a more photos and perfectly align it to the top, but photoshop sucks my "mobile dash" at the edge of the photo. When she did this, I can't align it perfectly. Is there a way to disable this effect? I hope I explained my question clearly it's a difficult question to explain!

    Thank you!

    1. Open the photo that will be the bottom (A). Reduce to a minimum.
    2. Open the photo (B) which you want to copy something to a. Select the object with one of the selection tools, go to Edition > copy. This will place the selection to the Clipboard

    3. Return to an image, go to Edition > paste. The selection will be on its own layer
    4. Access the move tool to move the selection and resize with the corner of the frame handles encompassing. You can use the arrow keys on the keyboard to move in place.

    The resolution of 2 images is probably not the same value, causing phenomenon "sucks my mobile dotted aboard".

    Let us know how make you out.

    I have a script which aligns a groupItemToBeAligned on a layer to an another referenceGroupItem on another layer, well. Problem comes when the groupItemToBeAligned consists of elements that have a clipping, masks just to help

    groupItemToBeAligned.position = referenceGroupItem.position;

  • moving text, very slightly to align with precision

    Hello

    I do a menu in pages and I would like to move some of the prices on the right side, so they all line up nicely. I don't want to choose all the 'align right' as then the food not all vertically aligned. Is there a command or action that allows me to just move the desired text by small steps?

    Thank you

    There is no adjustment convenient to move the text in small increments. Maybe with InDesign, Quark, or Scribus, but not in Pages.

    If you want your menu items and prices aligned differently and especially perfectly aligned to the right, then use a table that has cell formatting for this purpose.
