All great answer. Thank you all. I'll plug in the plugin. 😀

How do I smooth edges of text or other objects? Please see attached. How can I make the it look smooth & rounded? I did search for this, but couldn't find via my search phrases...

Thank all. As usual, I was overcomplicating my pixels.

Greetings and Thanks. Please see attached. Layer 2 is a copy of Layer 1 and they look identical when one or the other is turned on. But when both Layers are turned on, then the pixels get darker as if the shade/color of the individual pixels are doubling up. I assume this has to do with the Antialiasing setting, but my brain does not compute. Can you please tell me why this is happening? Details in attached. Also, can you please recommend a YouTube tutorial on understanding Antialiasing? I keep losing image quality and don't know why. Thank you, Dave the Newbie

Thank you both. Much appreciated.

Hello and thanks so much for your reply. Can you maybe answer another or should I start a new post? In attached zoomed-in graphic, I'd like to change every pixel that is not blue (i.e. all grey scales) to black. The background is pure blue. How can I select every pixel that is not blue and change all pixels to 1 color? Thanks again, very helpful. Grateful Dave

Greetings, 1. Can I change everything that's 1 color to a new or different layer? 2. Can I use pixels on 2 different layers as borders for a single paint bucket fill? Thank you.
