How can I blur a selection on a layer (gaussian blur) without the colors/transparency outside the borders of the selection bleeding through?

I am a digital artist, and I switch between programs a lot because sometimes photoshop just doesn't do everything, but I would really like to know if photoshop can help me with this. Is there a way for me to blur a selection without the edges becoming transparent (or color from outside the selection bleeding in). This really bothers me, and my other programs don't have this issue.

Would align to pixel grid help?
Left is not aligned, Right is aligned to pixel grid

  • How can I batch process CR2 raw files to tif's without losing color adjustments?

    Working in BRidge and Photoshop CS6:
    I have 160 color adjusted hi-res CR2 RAW files from my photographer, thought I was getting tifs. I need tifs for my INdesign file. I tried using the photoshop image proecessor through brige by selecting all my images and then saving as TIFFs but I am losing all my color correcting? Is there a way to save these out as tiffs as a group and not one at a time? I also might have lost my color correcting when I copies them all to one folder as well...not sure what is happening except now my great product shots look like crap. Please help.

    Simply drag the entire folder through Bridge—or even individual files—the invisible xmp files containing your adjustments will automatically and invisibly travel along with the image files, as long as you do it within Bridge, not through the OS.
    Otherwise, you would need to set your Mac OS to always make invisible files visible, and you don't want that hassle.
    Just use Bridge to move files around or to copy them to a new folder.
    Incidentally, there's a dedicated Adobe Bridge forum:

  • How can i save and download word documents on my ipad without the pages app

    Need to know how to save documents on my ipad so i can share the same version of documents between my computer and my ipad on the same network. I do not have the pages app. and Most of the documents are either pdfs of word docs. so need to be able to save them on ipad and retrieve them when i am on the move. Pls help?

    You have to have an app on the iPad that is compatible with the particular file type that you want to save, edit or share. You can look at any of the word processing apps - Pages is one, Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro - but you have to have one like that in order to save and edit Word files.
    With pdf files - iBooks will work to save them - but that's all. Other apps like GoodReader will let you annotate them.
    You have to decide which app will serve your needs best and them download them in order to save, edit and share those file types.

  • How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

    How can I change (or select) what is being being used when I share, as the file cover. When I Share lets say "Master File" i want to select a frame that is used as the file cover. So when its on my desktop I see this image as the file icon.

    I don't think Finder does this (I've tried).
    iTunes does though. Where you can set artwork or the "poster frame"...
    This may not be what you want but if it helps, I know 2 ways  do this is
    Open the video in QuicktimePlayer7 | View | Set Poster Frame (even then, you might need to save it as .mov (ie in a 'mov container').
    Drag the file into iTunes and set the artwork (as in http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/adding-album-cover-art-or-images-in-itunes .html)
    From there, iTunes will use that frame as the "poster frame" ie the photo/frame that shows when you browse your videos. Which is what you want, but limited to iTunes.
    When I do either of these above, the frame I set does not show when exploring files in "Finder" (or in the other Explorer tool I use called "Pathfinder").
    So it maybe, that exactly what you want, is not possible.

    In the Date Picker, How can I default to select * dates if the user does not select a date.
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Doug,
    Now lets say l want everythingCould you post some sample data and the output that you want to get..? It would be much easy to understand the requirements...
    When you mean everything, I am assuming you need all possible dates possible between date1 and date2.
    you can use... (from asktom.oracle.com).
      1  select to_date('12-jan-2009','DD-MON-YYYY') + rownum -1
      2    from ALL_OBJECTS
      3    where rownum <= (to_date('20-jan-2009','dd-mon-yyyy') -
      4*                     to_date('12-jan-2009','DD-MON-YYYY') +1 )
    sql> /
    TO_DATE('
    12-JAN-09
    13-JAN-09
    14-JAN-09
    15-JAN-09
    16-JAN-09
    17-JAN-09
    18-JAN-09
    19-JAN-09
    20-JAN-09
    9 rows selected.
    For your case, since you have date1 and date2...
    select to_date(:p12_date1,'DD-MON-YYYY') + rownum -1
      from ALL_OBJECTS
      where rownum <= (to_date(:p12_date2,'dd-mon-yyyy') -
                        to_date(:p12_date1,'DD-MON-YYYY') +1 )Should work.. in my opinion...Haven't tested the second one in Apex .
    Is this what you were looking for ..?? If not, please elaborate...
    Thanks,
    Rajesh.

  • TS3992 How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select any

    How can I back up an iphone when I haven't set the phone up for back ups & the touch screen doesn't work? The phone can receive calls (not answer) & the pictures & messages can be seen but the touch screen doesn't work to unlock the phone or select anything. We want to save/transfer pictures, contacts, and music to the replacement phone.

    Try backing it up to your computer with iTunes.  Connect it to your computer, open iTunes, click on the name of the phone in iTunes, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Back Up Now.  Also go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases to transfer you apps and other purchased media to your iTunes library.

  • How can I burn a selection of photos onto a disc?

    How can I burn a selection of photos from iphoto onto a disc that can be recognised in any operating system?

    I was told the disc willnot work at a third party photo printer like CVS
    Those are discs that are created via the Burn button in iPhoto which creates a mini iPhoto Library on the disk.  Those can't be used by an photofinisher.

  • How can i open a PDF bank statement in numbers so that the rows and columns contain properly aligned data from statement?

    how can i open a PDF bank statement in "numbers" so that the rows and columns contain properly aligned data from statement?

    Numbers can store pdfs pages or clippings but does not directly open pdf files.  To get the bank statement into Numbers as a table I would open the bank statment in Preview (or Skim) or some pdf viewer.
    Then hold the option key while selecting a column of data.
    Then copy
    Then switch to numbers and paste the column into a table
    Then repeat for the other columns in the pdf document
    It would be easier (in my opinion) to download the QFX or CSV version from your bank

    For windows pc's Photo albums:
    1) Create a master sync folder on your pc with no photo files at the root level of the folder.
    2) Create sub-folders within the master sync folder with the subfolders named what you want the ipad's photo albums to be named.
    3) Place the photo files you want to sync in the appropriate subfolder within the master sync folder.
    4) In itunes on the photos tab, select the master folder as the sync folder.
    5) After syncing, each subfolder will be an album on the ipad with the proper photos contained there-in.

    How can I move someone's hair from one photo to another and place it on another person? I have gone through every instructional video you have and have not been able to master this

    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the hair from to add to the picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the hair. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the hair to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position the hair from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and the hair (B) on a separate layer.
