Photoshop CS3 - blur a form

I have Photoshop CS3 - I have a long arrow shape and I want 1 end to be clear and the other blurier gradually get end - (eg. 1 end of the arrow would be 0 and the other 100% fuzzy) degraded a bit like using the tool. I can't understand how to do this in CS3. Any suggestions

1. create a copy of the layer (layer > duplicate layer)

a. If it is a vector layer, you'll have to rasterize the copy (layer > rasterize > shape)

2. apply a blur on the copy of the layer (filter > blur, choose a blur, Gaussian is popular).

3. Add a mask to the copy of the layer (layer > layer mask > reveal all)

4. apply a black and white gradient on the mask (with the gradient tool)

a. Black will hide the blur in order to ensure that the black side of the gradient is on the end, you want to be clear.

  • Photoshop CS3 Prints 'dotty '.

    Hello

    When I print from photoshop, the image is very "dotty". As it looks like just a bunch of dots form the images instead of a solid color. I use Photoshop CS3 and I print on a HP LaserJet printer.

    I print on the Laser Jet Black and white today while testing before you print it to a printer different color. (I don't want to waste color ink)

    Is this something with the print in Photoshop settings? What is my b & w printer? Will it be the same with a color printer?

    Any help would be appreciated,

    Nicholas

    Well, let's look at this in Overview: you are hoping to get a level of smooth gray with a printer can print only black spots (or), and to have the points down in profiles in order to create shades of gray...   Modern photo printers set points of ink at the sub-micron levels (e.g., well over 1000 dpi).  My old HP 932C inkjet is 1200 x 2400 dpi.

    You see better/more smooth photo printing to this printer laser with other applications?  Some printers don't do good photos.

    Maybe you should try just one color on this other color printer printing?  The printer settings have little to do with each other.

  • During the "offering" an image from Photoshop CS3

    When I "place" an image from Adobe Photoshop into a document in InDesign CS5 it's blurry. The picture is not blurred in Photoshop. Why this might be happening? Appreciate any help! I also tried to put the same picture in InDesign CS2 and it is blurred. Must the version of Photoshop (CS3) be identical to the version of InDesign (CS5)? Thank you!

  • El Capitan Photoshop CS3/Java SE 6 issue

    After my update to El Capitan, I can no longer launch Photoshop CS3. He insists on the use of Java SE6 but apparently I can not install the older version the latest version of Java is already installed. I have contemplated even remove the latest version to replace it with the older, but once again, it seems a bit counterproductive that I need probably the last update for reasons of security and other applications... Suggestions? (Please note that the latest package of Adobe Creative for me is not an option.) Thank you kindly!

    There is nothing about Java 8 Oracle that would prevent you Apple Java 6 installation, which is what the CS3 apps are looking for. They can be installed at the same time.

  • Photoshop CS3 license stopped working

    When I tried to open Photoshop CS3 this morning, he said that the licensing of this product had stopped working. It's surely not right?

    Try this...

    So I was able to resolve the error I had with minimal effort. I ran Process Monitor and found that there is an application called AGSServices.exe which was a lot of mistakes, try to connect to the following folder: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD\cache. I deleted the cache.db file in this folder, and the next time I open photoshop it asked me to re-enter the license information. Presto! That fixed it. In order to delete the cache.db file, I had to go in safe mode, but you could probably remove it without going into safe mode if you haven't tried to open a product adobe since a restart.

    I guess the cache.db file has been corrupted. Hope this helps someone who is having a similar problem.

    Thanks for giving me effective despistes

    The bridge creates and registers the UserID as Photoshop bridge preferences don't.  When Photoshop ID corrupt user preferences Photoshop may not start.   See if you can find your user id Bridge preferences folder and rename it.  Then try to start the bridge.  The bridge can create a new set of preferences for your username and start correctly.
