Goonfella Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I think I have found a bug, either with the Magic Wand or the Text Tool or both, I`m not sure. I was starting a text image at the time. Here are the steps I took - To begin with on the background layer I used the Paint Bucket to colour it DBDBDB - a light grey. I then added a new layer and on this I wrote my text in colour 6D6D6D - a slightly darker grey - using the Corpulant Caps BRK font , size 200. The next thing I wanted to do was select each individual letter and move it slightly on the image to get a more random look. So , using the magic wand I selected the first one and moved it. But when I had deselected it the outline of the letter was still showing in the place it used to be. I tried this with a couple of others and the same thing happened each time. I have taken a screenshot of the image and posted it below. Hopefully you will be able to see what I am referring to. You get a better view with the image full size. Whether this is a problem with the text tool or just the Magic Wand I do not know but I thought I would mention it anyway.

BoltBait Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I think you're not selecting all pixels of each letter. Due to the tolerance percentage, you're leaving a few of the pixels from each letter. It would be better to adjust the tolerance or simply select using the square selection tool.

Goonfella Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 Thanks Boltbait. Turns out all I needed to do was adjust the tolerance to 70% and selecting and deselecting it with the Magic Wand worked fine.Sorry to bother you. All these years using PDN and I STILL get things wrong! Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
