Star Mask question
« on: 2010 September 25 04:14:21 »
Having created a star mask, applied Morph Trans to reduce star size, and then applied the mask to the image, how do I 'flatten' (PS terminology, sorry) the image, to include the new star layer, and delete the mask.

Dave

The Morphological Transformation (MT) will have been applied to the image you do not flatten the image to apply the action.

To delete the mask either go to the top menu Mask/Remove Mask or use the shortcut on the top bar - it has the same symbol as shown in the Mask/Remove Mask menu item
