How can I make a Magic eraser brush?

Hi, does anyone know how I can make a magic eraser brush? and no I don't mean to simply click the Magic eraser tool and then go from there.....what I mena is that I have a black background on one layer then a second layer with a picture of something, I made my own custom brushes and I want to click fill on the black layer so that it will act as a magic eraser brush so that the image below will be able to show through. I know I could just fill the brush pattern as white and then click magic eraser but it looks too clumsy as my custom brush is pretty complicated.
Thank you in advance for your help

The magic eraser tool is not a brush tool, so you can't make your own brushes for it.  If you want to use your custom brushes, then I would suggest you use a layer mask to let the background show through, this is also better as it's non-destructive.

  • Just published my podcast, but the artwork is not showing up.  How can I make this magic happen?

    I just recently published a podcast, and since the name is similar to many others, the artwork will be critical in allowing others to find it.  How can I make it visible?

    If your image is correctly referenced in the feed it will appear in the Store page, but for a new podcast it cn take some days after the podcast appears in the Store before the image appear, so I'm afraid it's just a question of waiting.

    When talking about a specific image posting the image may be useful.
    One can use a Layer Mask and add a white Layer underneath.

    That model MBP gives you a choice of cards to use – one at a time. it is not designed for them to run in tandem - splitting up the workload.

  • How can I make custom cloud brushes?

    How can I make custom cloud brushes?

    I can't stand the limitations of the Contacts method of printing address labels. I don't want to waste a partial sheet if my selection doesn't come out even with the number of labels. I'd like to duplicate addresses which I use often to fill up the partial sheet. I like being creative with fonts, colors and even borders or images. Your ability to be creative with Contacts printing is severely limited.
    I've used Pay&Play's Label Printer Pro software for years. I originally paid MUCH more for this program. It's extremely versitle. Design one label and you can copy it to the rest of the labels in the drop down menu with one click. Chose how many of whichever lablel you want to duplicate with a simple cut and paste to fill up the page.
    I can vouch that it works perfectly with Mountain Lion, v 10.8.2.
    Here's the link to their direct download from their website for $6.95:

    Or you can look up Label Printer Pro 7 on the app store and pay $9.99.
    No, I don't work for or have any ties to the company other than being a satisfied customer of a product which suits my needs perfectly.

  • How can I make a bootable disk for Mountain Lion?

    How can I make a bootable disk for Mountain Lion?

    Make Your Own Mountain/Lion Installer
    1. After downloading Mountain/Lion you must first save the Install Mac OS X Mountain/Lion application. After Mountain/Lion downloads DO NOT click on the Install button. Go to your Applications folder and make a copy of the Mountain/Lion installer. Move the copy into your Downloads folder. Now you can click on the Install button. You must do this because the installer deletes itself automatically when it finishes installing.
    2. Get a USB flash drive that is at least 8 GBs. Prep this flash drive as follows:
    Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    After DU loads select your flash drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to an hour depending upon the flash drive size.
    3. Locate the saved Mountain/Lion installer in your Downloads folder. CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the installer and select Show Package Contents from the contextual menu. Double-click on the Contents folder to open it. Double-click on the SharedSupport folder. In this folder you will see a disc image named InstallESD.dmg.
    4. Plug in your freshly prepared USB flash drive. You are going to clone the content of the InstallESD.dmg disc image to the flash drive as follows:
    Double-click on the InstallESD.dmg file to mount it on your Desktop.
    Open Disk Utility.
    Select the USB flash drive from the left side list.
    Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    Select the USB flash drive volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    Drag the mounted disc icon from the Desktop into the Source entry field.
    Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    When the clone is completed you have a fully bootable installer that you can use without having to re-download Mountain/Lion.
    Note: The term Mountain/Lion used above means Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • How can I use my Magic mouse in a Macbook pro?

    I have an iMac and I'm using the magic mouse. I just got a Macbook Pro and would like to use the mouse with this computer too.
    How can I make it work in both computers?
    I won't use them at the same time of course. I use one during the day, and the other at night so I'm hoping to make the mouse work in both.
    Thanks in advance!!

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
    You have been very helpful! I will try that! Thanks!!
    PS: One last question, will it work if I put it in "sleep" mode or it has to be shut down?
    Thanks again!

  • How can I make a line at 40 degree angle in Keynote 6

    How can you make a line of 40 degrees (or anywhere between 40 to 45) angle in the new Keynote 6.2.2. It seems they took away that nice feature from the previous version. When I move one end of a line, it locks onto 45 when I get near that angle, and jumps off directly to 34 when I try to move away. Previously you could click on a line to transform the ends into red spots, and move them independently to any angle or length. Now it locks onto 45, or 135 or 90 etc. I don't have any of the guides on or any other feature. This is supposed to happen only when holding shift key (which is also a great feature). If it locks onto the magic angles without holding shift, then there is no sense if having that feature at all.

    Press the command key when dragging, this switches off snapping and allows continuous placement.
    If you like numerical control:     Inspector > Format > Arrange > Rotate

  • How can i make factory reset to may macbook pro

    hey, how can i make factory reset to my macbook pro

    Throw away any files which may contain sensitive data and securely empty the Trash.
    If it shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, insert its original disk and restart the computer with the C key held down.
    If it shipped with Mac OS X 10.7 or newer, restart with the Command and R keys held down.
    Use the Disk Utility to erase the partition with Mac OS X installed, and then install a new OS onto it. If you used a disk and are going to sell or give away the computer, include the disk with it.

    Your'e kidding me. Right?  You don't have to do the entire length of the line in one stab.

    Forget the Alpha mask idea.  I'm home now and it is a total non starter in this case.  But try some of these if you want to learn the technique

  • How can I make one slide that contains multiple slides?

    Hi, I want to make slideshow for presentation. And I want to know how can I make this slide.
    For example in this picture, have 1 main slide and 6 sub slides. I want to make slide like this, and all slides should be in one slide. And I want to zoom in to sub slide when I click and then zoom out when I click one more. And then second slide should be zoom in when I click and zoom out when I click again. And then slide 3 etc.
    I want to know how can I do this.

    There are two ways to do this.
    1. Duplicate the main or first slide numerous times - as many as you'll need for the show, which looks like 6 including the first "overview slide".
    2. You know have two choices - either use the Magic Move transition between the first slide and the next, which has the main box centre screen and enlarged proportionally.
    3. Or enlarge the slides so that the main point is central, but use hyperlinks to move between the slides. This also gives you the liberty of changing the order spontaneously should the situation demand. Using the main first slide, place an invisible box around each element and use a link to move to that slide which is enlarged. Then you have to decide if you will come back each time to slide 1 (the overview) by having the whole slide hyperlinked to slide 1, or the whole slide linked to the next slide. That way you don't have to go looking for the hyperlink area.
    The Magic Move effect will give your presentation a "Prezi" like effect, while the hyperlinked version I've described will just use gentle dissolves between each slide.
    I will sometimes use 3 because I want to encourage audience participation and let them choose where to go next... e.g., the various elements of a 747 wing assembly, or the interior of a large cruise ship, showing state rooms, dining, pool area, ballroom, etc.

  • In the storage there is " others" how can i find it and erase it

    in the storage there is " others" how can i find it and erase it

    abufadwa,
    something categorized as Other is not necessarily something that should be erased — for example, most components of OS X would be categorized as Other. If you would like to make more room on your internal disk, it would probably be better to choose from some of the other categories (viz Audio, Movies, Photos), and to move such files from your internal disk to an external disk.
