penguin625 Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 How do I lower the opacity of a selection? I know how to lower the entire layer, but is there a special plugin I need?

Red ochre Posted November 21, 2011 Share Posted November 21, 2011 Hello 'penguin625', There are 2 plugins which I know of that can do this. 1. Boltbait's transparency plugin - in his pack (and is found under Adjustments) - good for simply changing the transparency. 2. My 'Tweak transparency' plugin, in my pack (under effects/transparency) - complicated to use, but can change the transparency and the shading of a selection in many ways, based upon comparing the blurred values to the original ones. - That's probably as clear as mud! If you look in EEr's plugin index you should be able to find links to both. 1 Quote Red ochre Plugin pack..............

Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Or you could do this (with selection active...) 1. CTRL+C (copy) 2. Delete key 3. Add new layer 4. CTRL+V (paste) 5. Press F4 6. Lower opacity slider to suit 7.
