  • Lasso Hell – Sharp Edges !

    Posted by Ace Billet on August 9, 2012 at 8:01 pm

    I’m trying to lasso an area of a picture.
    When I lasso and feather the selection, the edge come out sharp with a slight feather / shadow.
    Nothing like it should be. Image is 8 bit.

    Any clues why this atrocity happens ?
    Using a soft brush to matte the area yields pretty similar gruesome edge.

    thanks !

    This is not unexpected behavior. Have you tried putting a solid color behind it? When it blends it shouldn’t be as gruesome 🙂

    You can try adjusting the lasso properties by clicking the refine edge button found in the menu options for that tool. Note: tool most be active for this menu to be visible(in upper left corner). When the window opens you will see options like smooth and feather etc… Hope this helps!
