How Do I Free-hand Cut an Object Out of a Pic With PSE 8?

I want to completely free-hand cut a horse out of one pic and then save it into another pic with a different background. I can't figure out how to do this with PSE 8. It is my first time using this program. The only picture editing program I have used before was Microsoft Picture It (v.7 from 2003 I believe), and it had a cool multi-selection cutout tool that included free-hand cutting. It worked perfectly for my needs, so I'm pretty frusterated that I can't seem to figure out how to do the same thing now that I have PSE 8. Can anyone advise me on this please? I'd sure appreciate the help. Thanks!

You need to select the horse. Use one of the selection tools. In PEv.8 there is the magic extractor (Image>magic extractor), and also the selection brush, which I find works very well. The lasso tools should also work well for you. Once you have selected the horse, you can copy/paste it to your new background.
If you post the picture, either here, or at www.pixentral.com (provide the URL so that we can access it), we can provide detailed step-by-step guidance.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    There is no such option/setting on an iPhone to determine this. Whether you can view the attachment has more to do with your connection, WiFi or cellular, and the size of the attachment than anything else. There will be a paperclip indicating the message includes an attachment regardless if downloaded with the message or not. When connected to the cellular network, if an attachment is below a designated size the attachment will be downloaded automatically. If over a certain size, you must select the attached file icon in the body of the message to download the attachment. The size limit varies by carrier/provider.

  • In iTunes and on my iPhone6, it shows 2.1 GB of photos, but I deleted all the photos... how do I free up this space?  Where are these pics located?

    On my iPhone 6 and on iTunes (when I connect it), it shows 2.1 GB of memory space used for photos. 
    I cannot seem to find a way to see what these are, or how to delete them.
    I have deleted all of the photos I can see on my camera roll. 
    Where would these files be located? 
    Any help appreciated!!
    Thank you!

    Hi manners_97,
    If you are having an issue with photos not appearing to relinquish the space they take up on your iPad after being deleted, there are a couple of things I would suggest.
    First, try just restarting the iPad and check again. Use the procedure in this article -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Test again. If the space is still unreclaimed -
    Second, it is likely that these photos are synced with iTunes. Use the procedure in this article -
    iPhoto for iOS (iPad): Delete photos from iPhoto
    Specifically -
    Photos and video clips you synced to your computer using iTunes: Connect your device to your computer and, in iTunes, deselect the photos and video clips you want to remove from your device. Click Apply.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • I have a question about free hand crop on PhotoshopCC

    I have a pic that I want to take a specific shape from, but the colors are numerous and complex so the magic wand wont work. Is there a way to free hand crop or select only the odd shape with a drawing option?????? I want to snip just the loader machine from this pic and insert it in a collage. Can someone suggest a method for this? I am using Photoshop CC.
    thanks, betdy1345

    Hold down the mouse button over the magic wand tool in the tool bar for a few seconds, a small popup will appear, select the quick selection tool. You can use this to drag over the UTV, then move the UTV to a new layer (ctrl-shift-j {windows} command-shift-j {Mac})
    Instead of moving to a new layer, you could also convert the selection to a mask. Click the icon in the layers panel that looks like a circle inside of a square. Also, if the layer the image is on is a background layer, you need to click on the padlock on that layer to convert it it to a normal layer, that is required to make the mask work.
    The reason for the mask, is it will make it easier to change the shape of the mask if it needs adjusting ex. you can still see part of the house.
    The mask is also non-destructive, meaning you can remove it any time you want at a later date. Whereas the cut to layer is destructive, meaning once it is done and you do not have a backup, there is no going back once the file is closed.

  • How to create a dropdown box in free hand sql??

    Hi every body,I have created a report by using free hand sql. My client wants to create a drop down box in that report.I do not know how to create the drop down box as i know how to create prompts in free hand sql.can you please help me to create the drop down box by using free hand sql. Periyasamy.

    Hi Periyasamy,
    A drop down box is the same as a prompt that you would build when working in Designer.  If you already have the prompt in mind that you want to use and it exists in your universe, then the easiest way to make it work in free hand SQL is to first build your query in the normal fashion that you would for any other report and include that prompt.  Once you've got the objects and filters pretty much set, then capture the SQL, and modify it now as free hand SQL for your own situation.  You will notice that there may be some "@prompt" stuff scattered in your SQL, which will now run as a drop down box when you go to run your free hand SQL.  You can take note of how things were constructed and the next time you have to build your own free hand SQL you can either do it again the way just described, or build it totally on your own.

  • Find out free hand sql reports

    Hi All,
    I need find out free hand sql reports we have above 3000 reports and we are using business objects 6.5.
    Could you please tell me any one how track these reports which table these informations.
    Advance Thanks.
    Regards,

    Hi Sreenivas,
    The following information might help you to retrieve the information you require.
    There is a universe available as a part of Auditor product for which you need a separate license. This product helps you to have better control of your repository usage. The universe is REP_ORA.
    You can create a very simple universe using the OBJ_M_DOCATVAR table. This is a new table in version 6.5.x. This table gives the source of each dataprovider. Full client reports can have more dataproviders, so it is a one-to-many relationship.
    If you add the OBJ_M_DOCUMENTS table to the universe and join them by doc_id (OBJ_M_DOCATVAR.M_DOC_N_ID = OBJ_M_DOCUMENTS.M_DOC_N_ID), then you will have the proper document (report) names instead of just the ID numbers.
    The OBJ_M_DOCATVAR table is updated each time a BusinessObjects (6.5.x) or a WebIntelligence (2.5) document is exported to the repository (Send to users, Send to Broadcast Server, Publish to Corporate documents).
    The basic fields you will need in the report:
    OBJ_M_DOCUMENTS.M_DOC_C_NAME: The name of the document. The name of the document is unique for each given document domain.
    OBJ_M_DOCATVAR.M_DOC_N_ID: The unique identifier of the document. This value is referenced in OBJ_M_DOCUMENTS. The properties are therefore only applied to exported documents.
    OBJ_M_DOCATVAR.M_DOCATV_C_DPNAME: The name of the Data Provider (DP) for the current document.
    OBJ_M_DOCATVAR.M_SRC_C_NAME: The name of the source. You can see it in the end-user module by opening a document and choosing to view the data manager. It can be a universe name or a connection depending on the type of Data Provider.

  • WebI - free hand sql

    Hi,
    I am new to WebI. I am runiing BO Xi 3.1. Does anyone know how to create a Webi report using free hand sql?

    Hi Efstratios -
    I have to agree with the statement:
    There is no direct support for free hand SQL in Web Intelligence.
    If by "direct support" we're talking about an intuitive and manageable way to enter free-text SQL and "let Webi do the rest", then it's certainly not true. Currently, an end-user is required to endure several painstaking steps and cautions to align the SQL select of a freehand sql written in the Webi SQL pane with that's been dragged-and-dropped to the Result Objects pane in the Java Report Panel.  Even after this process is finished and the user has a report,  any change in # of result objects (columns) requires the user to once again re-create the SQL.
    The current superior method to accomplish this is to use Desktop Intelligence, or create the derived table in a Universe as Dave mentioned.

  • Free hand text

    Where is the free hand text of a PO stored.
    Any table to check this.

    Hi SV,
    Goto the transaction for PO creation, click on the long text button.
    Follow the menu path <b>Goto->Header</b>
    Here, you'll get all the informations pertaining to the language, text ID and text object. Also check how the text name is constructed.
    Provide these as inputs to your function module and you'll get back the long text.

  • How to export from Final Cut Pro after downloading Maverick

    Final Cut Pro no longer exports after installing Maverick.  I get this: The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)  - have paid for Compressor and instaled it - but it makes no difference.

    But how do I update Final Cut Pro 10.0.3?  Apple says all my updates for everything are fine.  It worked well before I installed Maverick, and now I can't get any of my short films out of it!  They won't copy over to IMovie so I have to start again and basically scrap Final Cut Pro - which seems a bit unfair just for updating to Maverick.  Makes the free download a bit pricey in the long term.

  • How do i get a copy of IDVD and will it work with final cut pro x.

    I have a new powerbook. I've purchased final cut pro x because express is no longer available. My Mac didn't come with iDVD and I can't find a suitable dvd authoring tool. Please... some suggestions for DVD authoring or how to get a copy of iDVD and will it even work with FCPx.

    Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes for iDVD.)
    408-996-1010
    800-692-7753
    If you are still within your 15 day return period,  nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.
    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

  • Not Converted : Free-hand SQL connection problem

    While converting a Free Hand SQL report from Desktop Intelligence to Web Intelligence report in BI XI 3.1, I am faced with the problem
    Not Converted : <REPNAME> - Free-hand SQL connection problem
    It is be noted that there are some other Free Hand SQL Reports, that go converted and published without any error. The subject report has two Data Providers; one referring to the Universe and other from the Free Hand SQL tagged to a DB Connection

    Ajay,
    Some more points that can be of consideration to you to help understand my problems.
    The conversion from DeskI to WebI is in the same version BI XI 3.1 and not to BI 4.0 in which Free Hand SQLs is not supported.
    I have converted one other Free Hand SQL Report with an error "Partially Converted : <REPNAME2> - Conditional or permanent Hide Header not available in Web Intelligence", for which I had to edit the report in InfoView and un-tick the "Show When Empty" property of the table ( http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=197157&view=next&sid=e6840aafa2d1267c66dae164d1dbf9db ). I think the solution mentioned in this link does not meet the purpose as the table is not displayed in the design time after the above untick.
    Coming back to our issue, further probing into this aspect I stumbled upon this link meant for RCT for BI 4.0 version
    https://csdwportal.dhhs.state.nc.us/downloads/Business%20Objects%20XI%20R4.0%20Docs/SAP%20BusinessObjects%20Report%20Con…
    where in Section 3.4.9, there is a mention of the limitation in conversion as under
    "Conversion of reports with free-hand SQL or stored procedures is only possible in Connected mode, since the Report Conversion Tool needs to use the secured connection to the database that is saved in the CMS."
    I want to how the secured connection to the database in REPNAME2 is different from the subject report REPNAME1 as REPNAME2 got partially converted. The error reported for Subject report is "Free Hand SQL Connection Problem" and not conversion problem which can occur after the connection is established.
    I did check the security properties of various FHSQL connections in the CMC and all of them are identical in nature.
    Please advise

  • Can we create LOV using free hand sql with out hardcoding

    Hi gurus,
    Dear All,
    For some of the reporst we don't have universe, so we use to get the report with the help of free hand sql,
    but here I have to hardcode the list of values by using @prompt, but instead of hardcoding is there any ways to get the list of vaues  by using @prompt, if then can any one help me out.

    Yes and no.
    When we use a LOV in a universe, the SQL is generated from the object definition. With Free Hand SQL (FHS) there is no universe. However...
    If you create a very simple universe to host your LOV, and then reuse the same prompt text in your FHS then you can fake the LOV. This is not a great solution, but to be honest, FHS is never really a solution that I would consider. You might consider using Crystal to replace Deski in these cases.
