Soften the edges of the isolated 'product'

I have pictures of products (pieces) I want to isolate the background. The quick selection tool, I can select the background and make it white (or transparent maybe?)

But that leaves the party with a relatively rough edge (almost as if it's not anti-aliasing). One thing I can do manually, is add a blur on the edge, but it seems that there should be a better way to soften the edges. Maybe some kind of anti-aliasing around just the edges or something? I don't know what would be the approrach for this standard. It seems to be a fairly common thing to want to do.

What version of PS do you use?  CS5 has the feature of edge I refine my selection which will give you the flexibility to do what you ask.

This and content are aware, two new features that made me to upgrade. :-)

  • Help: Saving as jpg ignores soften the edge / mask

    Hello

    today I updated my CC Photoshop Version: 2015.1.2 20160113. 355 2016/01/13:23:59:59 CL 1059143 x 64 and since then, I have a big problem with the standard "save under"-dialog.

    If I have a layer with a soften the edges, for example, to set a thumbnail of a picture, and save this image with the standard dialog as a jpg the soften edge is lost and there is a hard edge without any sweetness (first image).

    If I record it with the old version 'Save for web' (export) as a jpg file, there is no problem! (second image).

  • Staples are overlapping in the Final product

    I'm having a hard time to describe my problem, so by using the search function is not a solution for me.

    The problem is that clips are overlapping (and underlapping) when they stacked using several tracks on the final product.

    Basically what I do, it's something like the opening credits Brady Bunch, you know where they have a clip of profile of all nine characters all in a single view. 

    I do something a little more basic with 4 clips playing at the same time, so I have four tracks and each track has a clip. PE monitor displays the alignment clips just as I want then. the edges of each element are perfectly butted against each other (at least on the PE monitor). When I record and see the final project as a .avi or mpeg video clips are aligned is more correctly. Clips seem to drift on the center of the lines from afar or drifting out. Some of the clips I resized and cropped, so it has the view on the monitor of PE.

    I noticed this problem going on with my titles too. Where I positioned title element on a certain location of the video below him, but the final product the title moves upwards or downwards.

    Maybe this has something to do with the aspect ratio of 720 x 480 PE monitor and the proportions of my final product (wide ntsc), but I can't seem to wrap my brain around it. The pictures I use is 720 p 60 fps of a GoPro camera.

    Good luck on getting the FACE to match. That should take care of things for you - at least hoping that.

    When I do PEP fixtures, I usually do grids of alignment to contribute to this process. In your case, it seems that you are in stop your matrix 2 x 2 clips, this probably isn't necessary. Yet, here is an ARTICLE on the grids of the alignment. In the end, I added a bit more on the alignment of the PiP.

    Good luck

  • C50-A-1DV satellite - cannot find the Office product key

    I bought the new laptop in UK computer dockside.com laptop Satellite model C50-A-1DV.

    Now in India, I'm trying to connect Office but its asking for the product key. I check with the seller, according to him the product key should be in the box of the laptop, but we do not found.
    Again once I had word with the seller that he come back we will get the online product key.
    I do not get product key from anywhere & not able to use my laptop.

    Please help to get the product key

    Preinstalled version of Office is not a full version. It is the 60-day trial version. 60 days, you can use Office and test it. If you like it, you must purchase a valid license.

    Which is the reason why you can't find the license code. Your seller is unfortunately not well informed about the products they offer.

  • The Toshiba products online Information tool seems to be completely unnecessary

    Hello.

    I just got a new Toshiba Satellite C660-7.

    It comes with a ton of set of applications - most of which I can't say if I need or not.

    One of them is the '' Information in the Toshiba product line. ''

    I keep telling myself that 'Bluetooth 3 now available for your computer.

    I say "Woo Hoo". But that's all.

    No link. No download. Nothing.

    I click, double click, triple click. Click that clicking is going out of fashion.

    Nothing. Nada. Nothingness.

    So. What is the point of the application?

    How to use it?

    I clicked on the "statement of agreement".

    Any ideas?

    Kind regards

    Richard Quadling.

    Hello Richard

    Toshiba, like any other laptop to the manufacturer, offers portable computers with a lot of additional software. Some of them are useful and some of them can be removed from the system.

    As you have new notebook with this I recommend you follow:
    Has at first to create recovery DVDs. This DVD can be used for the installation of the OS, if something goes wrong with the HARD drive or recorded the recovery image. So please do this at the beginning.

    Then check all the preinstalled stuff and you can see if you like it or not. All you n t like or did not need you can remove it from the system. No one forcing you to use it.
    "Toshiba Online product information" is nice tool and should offer you information about updates of your laptop but in fact you n t need and you can delete the system.

    Also check s manuals document and you will find explanations for specific applications of Toshiba.

  • calculate the scalar product

    Hi all

    hope that everyone else is doing great! I have a question about a problem that was asked to do. It says I have to calculate the scalar product, so I wonder if I just did? The constraints are that one way is to make ite with only discreet from the digital palette functions and the other functions of the range of linear algebra matrix. So I just hope that it is the right way to do it.

    Thank you

    Because in the dark ages, we had no linear algebra nice and convenient functions, you should know how to do it "manually". This is the point of most of the homework problems. To make you understand the concept then you know what it really means and the implementation to let you know how do it yourself.

    Just like in the dark ages we didn't have Google, so we used these buildings called libraries. And you looked up things in these large big cabinets full of drawers that had hundreds of cards in them. And you had to know the Dewey decimal system.
