  • Why & remove: thin black line around new image?

    Hi there.
    PS CS3 (10.0.1)
    Why does PS automatically make a thin black line around any new image and how can I set PS not to do this?

    Thank you for replying to my question.
    You are 100% right ... I have made the canvas a bit larger and there is no line.
    BUT, why is there a line around the image when viewing in a browser? I dont' want it there and this is the first time I have this problem.
    Thank you for your time & help.

    Any way to fix the alpha transparency when importing PNG files to iMovie 09?
    I just know the two options - wrong (8bit) png or that plugin, which in an older version destroyed transparency..
    what also make transparent-to-black is, when you 'manipulate' the imported png, esp. adding a *KenBurns Effect* - that kills transparency instantly.
    for test purposes:
    • create a new project
    • create a new png with some traansparency
    • add new png to new project - same result?
    and just to avoid EVERY problem: your sys preferences/Monitor is set to 'million colors'?

  • Nasty black borders around clicked items

    I am suddenly getting nasty black borders around file names I click on (and not just in the finder). Although ugly I would be able to live with if it wasn't for the fact that they can remain on the screen. It looks like corruption. Does anyone have a remedy?

    VoiceOver is on, you probably accidentally hit that magic keystoke that turns it on (command-F5, I think.) Hit the keystroke again, or go to System Preferences -> Universal Access to turn it off.

  • PDF exporting with thin black lines around some images

    Hi there,
    I have spent A LOT of time making a custom SAVE THE DATE card and I cannot find a solution to this problem. When I am working in the document, I do not see thin borders around any of the images but when I export to PDF they show up. I have NO BORDERS selected for all images in the document and cannot figure out why they keep showing up after export. 
    I have attached a screen grab of what the document looks like when I am working on it, and another one of what it looks like after export. I am using Pages 5.2.2 and OS X version 10.9.5
    I need to order these SAVE THE DATES by tomorrow to take advantage of the 60% off! Thanks so much for your help!

    I am seeing this same problem in a family newsletter I've created.  The lines do not show up in Pages, but when I export to pdf (or print to pdf), the lines appear.  When I print the document, no lines appear.
    Here's what the top of the newsletter looks like - the black lines show up on all the pages, and in the beige-covered overlay, crosshatching is visible.   The template I'm using was in existence two years ago, but doesn't seem to exist in Pages anymore.  Would that have anything to do with the lines showing up?
    I also found this link, but can't apply any of the suggested fixes, since they apply to Adobe:  <http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/thin-white-dark-lines-stitching.html>.

  • PSD files have black borders around the image edge

    I've just uploaded an image file in PSD format to a folder in my Creative Cloud workspace. The image is a cutout object on single layer with transparency. It views fine in Photoshop and also in Quick Look/Preview but when it's uploaded I have a pixelated black border around the perimeter of the object in the layer. I thought it might just be the preview but it's the same when I open it in Photoshop Touch.
    Is anyone else expereincing this?

    Hi David,
    PSD files are flattened when imported into Photoshop Touch and then lose any transparency. I'm not seeing a way to import transparency other than in PSDX format which the transparency would have to have been created in PS Touch. I'm moving this post to the PS Touch forum in case I'm missing something.

  • Thin white border around image in browser

    In Firefox and Safari a thin white border appears around a
    black image. My background is black so.....is it a matter of the
    blacks being slightly different? I'd like the image to appear
    seamless on the page. How can I fix this?

  • IMac 27-inch with - Black borders around smaller resolutions

    Hey,
    Back with Boot Camp 3.0, I've had problems with the color depth. It said 32-bit while it appeared to be 16-bit. Now it's been fixed with Boot Camp 3.1.
    However, I have an even more annoying problem now. I can't use the native resolution of my display because things are way too small on it. So I'm using the classic 1080p (1920 x 1080 @ 60 Hz) resolution. Problem is, my computer is STILL in 2560 x 1440, and I see Windows 7 occupying 1920 x 1080 pixels, centered vertically and horizontally in the middle of my screen. Around it, there's huge black borders.................
    I have a Radeon 4850 by the way. I read somewhere that it had to do with having two monitors, but never installed another monitor on this computer.
    I've tried installing and reinstalling and uninstalling a bunch of official and non-official drivers from ATI. I guess I still haven't found the good one... or I haven't found the good option in Windows that fixes this.
    Any idea? I know I'm not the only one with this problem, but I haven't found much information on the web about that.

    Hi,
    using the ATI Catalyst Control Center (usually part of the downloadable Catalyst Driver Suite) should provide an option in the Display properties to use lower than native resolutions 'stretched' (without the black borders).
    http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx
    Before installing drivers, it is always recomended to make a System restore Point and/or have a backup to revert back easily in case of troubles.
    Also you should remove all remnants of older or other drivers using either the Windows "Software" option, a provided uninstaller or DriverSweeper.

  • How to remove black border around image files?

    I'm something of a beginner with Photoshop, so forgive me if I've missed something entirely obvious: for some strange reason I'm now getting a black border around all image files that I save through the "Save for Web & Devices" panel. Does anyone know how I can save without creating this border? It looks rather unsightly when I load it into a client site. The file in question is a .png, but I seem to be getting the same effect with all other image files as well.
    Thanks in advance,
    Shane

    One cause could be having the matte color set to something other than none.
    Is that a png-8?

  • GT60 3K IPS black borders around the screen on lower resolutions

    I've got an MSI GT60 with 3K IPS display and GF880M and although it's a very powerful machine it sometimes isn't fast enough to play the games with the native resolution on high details, therefore in several games I wanted to lower the resolution to get a better experience. However this is where I have a problem, because if I change the resolution in-game what usually happens (80% of the games I've tried) is the screen is getting smaller and I have back borders around it. This is kind of frustrating and I wanted to ask if you know any way of sorting out this issue. I'd like to be able to play a game at 1080P for example but have it stretched to the whole screen.
    Some of the games I've observed this behaviour:
    1. L.A. Noire
    2. Assassin's Creed: Black Flag
    3. Far Cry 3
    4. Max Payne 3
    I've tried lowering the Windows resolution prior to opening the game but it makes no difference. I've also looked at the nVidia Control Panel because some of the versions of the drivers had the option to stretch lower resolution to full screen but in the latest one I couldn't find it.
    As the result of this I'm feeling a little frustrated that although the notebook itself is one of the most powerful ones available on the market I cannot play it the way I wanted and I begin to think paying extra for the 3K display was a mistake a I should've gone with the 1080P version. But I hope there's a fix for this issue.

    I've found a workaround but it's very annoying as I have to apply it everytime I launch a game (or if I accidently alt-tab back to windows desktop).
    1. Run the game and let it launch with the back borders
    2. Ctrl+Alt+Del and go to desktop (don't Alt-Tab, it won't work)
    3. Open Intel Graphics properties, change the resolution to 3k, apply changes, than change it back to 1080P or whichever you like and mark the Desktop Stretching option. Apply changes.
    4. Back to the game and the black borders should now be gone.
    It's a workaround, not a solution. I'd really like that MSI, nVidia or whoever is responsible for this behavior find a permament fix.

  • Thin black line around mask when placed in Final Cut Pro

    After upgrading all to the latest version of the Pro suite, I'm getting a thin--pixel-wide-black line around my Motion masks when placed back in Final cut pro. Is anyone else seeing this?

    Try this:
    Open you media bin (F5) click on the "Media" tab at the top and find the "offending file". Click on the file and go to your Inspector-->Media. Under the "Alpha Type" drop-down menu, select "Premultiplied - Black" (or white or color) and see if that fixes it. I was having a similar issue with a white line appearing and this fixed it.
    Good luck.

  • ST2421L, black bars around image suddenly appeared

    This is a real puzzler. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, my ST2421L monitor displayed black bars around the screen image (doesn't matter if it is the desktop or a browser or MS Word). Seriously, when I started work in the morning, everything was normal. I blinked and then there were black bars. I've done some searching at the support forums and one suggestion was to install something called AMD Catalyst Suite. When I tried to do that, it ran and then the dreaded blue screen appeared. Using control panel, I checked to see if Windows felt the drivers for the monitor were up to date and they were. I've also gone through the factory reset via the OSD, unplugged the monitor's power and its HDMI cable, etc. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

    Thank you, Chris. When I do that, I see the panel below. Note how it says the best driver is "win7_32_"  When I attempt a download, I eventually see an error message saying I have a 64 bit system and that driver is the wrong one and the process aborts. Any ideas?  And thanks! 

  • Black frame around image icon during Web Start start up

    Hi,
    Sometimes I can see black frame (16 pixels) around my own icon during resource files downloading. My icon resolution is 32*32 pixels.
    It appears like Web Start assignes size of the icon to 64*64 pixels and all space around my 32*32 icon is filled by black colour.
    Playing with the width and height parameters. As a result it did not help.

    Change that to something like..
    ClassLoader cl =this.getClass().getClassLoader();
    Image programmIcon = new ImageIcon(cl.getResource("/colorandsize.jpg")).getImage();
    ..There are changes to both lines.
