Magic wand does not work when I switch of grayscale, RGB

Hoping someone can help! I have a project where I scanned in a drawn hand image, then open in Photoshop, adjusted for the threshold and then in the menu "layer style", I adjusted the "mixture" level slightly to make the background transparent. I have at this point is my drawing in black on a transparent background. I need to make the white black parties, so I select with the magic wand and the 'fill' with white, but it becomes transparent. Then I tried to change color in RGB mode (it was originally gray), but then the magic wand will not select anything. Can anyone help with this?

If you follow my instructions (#7), no magic wand is involved.

What is its use in this case?

Review: after you open your image:

1. If the layer is locked, the lock trash?

2. have you Cmd + click the icon new layer in the layers panel to place a layer below what was the background layer?

3. you return to the upper layer and double-click on it in the layers panel to bring up the layer Style?

5. in the section mix if at the bottom of layer Style, have you moved the cursor of the gray-scale top of page from right to left until the surround became transparent?

If you answered 'yes' to all, just follow the previous instructions in my #7.

There is no magic wand involved

Three reminders:

You place a layer of white in the background (as shown in step 2) layer

You must use the layer > merge to the low order and not the layer > command Flatten Image

You do not need to save the file in jpg format

  • screen saver does not work when magic jack is pluged in. unplug mj it works

    screen saver does not work when magic jack is pluged in. unplug taking magic, the screensaver works properly.

    09/05/10 the MagicJack has released an update that prevents the screen saver and "standby" mode. They are aware that people are upset on this issue, but they seem not to care.

    Here is a simple solution to the problem. I've used it since 10/09/10 and it works perfectly.

    Restore the functionality of screen saver / display after MagicJack diverted these features...

    Click on the Start button in Windows 7

    type cmd in the search box

    Right click on cmd and run as administrator if you are not running as an administrator it will not work!

    type: powercfg /requestsoverride PROCESS magicJack.exe DISPLAY

    Make sure that you type the capitol letters and lowercase no look of magic make 'J' ack it's capitol as well!

    Press enter

    Now unplug your magicjack

    Restart your computer and let the unplugged MagicJack

    Once the computer starts together your screensaver for a minute then let it sit for a minute activate screen saver...

    Now plug your magic let sit for one minute Alto screen saver is now active!

    If you want to activate the sleep as well, follow the same instructions as above, but simply type this line instead.

    type: powercfg /requestsoverride PROCESS magicJack.exe DISPLAY SYSTEM

    If you follow these instructions, your sleep/screen mode will work as before.

  • Satellite A660 - Webcam does not work when using Skype

    I recently bought a Satellite A660-15J. I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have the latest version of Skype (5.3.0.111).

    The integrated Webcam does not work when you run Skype. If I run the Toshiba Web Camera Application the webcam works fine. However, when I test it in Skype, I get a message saying "cannot start video. Try quitting other programs that use the webcam '.

    However, as far as I can tell there no other programs available. I have tried Skype with the Web Camera Application clised & open. I also confirmed that I do run the latest version of the program.

    One of the main reasons we have this laptop is to use Skype video... Help, please.

    Disable webcam application start-up and exit this application before you start Skype.

    I used Skype many different models of laptops, including friends A660 and it worked correctly.

    When you open Skype video settings is listed as default camera USB webcam?

  • Event does not work when I have my variable of variable mutual FUND!

    Hello

    I programmed a labview vi to add a field to a list view when a Boolean variable value is changed. I used a case Event (value change event) structure to determine if a variable value is changed, it works when I force the Boolean control with my mouse click, but it does not work when the value of the variable is modified by the mutual FUND. What should I use instead?

    Value change events are based on the interaction of the user (or the same ejection programmatically based on the value property node (signaling).)  It is not based on a control change via a regular, variable property node local, terminal or any other connecito0n programmatic or binding.

    You must simply query the variable and determine when it changes.  In this case, you can then use the node value property (signs) in the case of event fire.
