Poohbear Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Following making and refining a selection I select invert pixel selection but only one edge of the image shows marching ants. If I then go to filter/blur the background does blur but reverts to original on apply. How do I get marching ants all around the background please?

I think the march ants on one edge not on the outside edges is a known bug. 2 hours ago, Poohbear said: Following making and refining a selection I select invert pixel selection but only one edge of the image shows marching ants.

Or show a screenshot with the layers panel in-shot too Quote iMac 27" 2019 Sequoia 15.0 (24A335), iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

firstdefence Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Even though you cannot see the marching ants on all of the outer edges, they are there, you can check if you have the background selected by pressing the ⌘+X and the background should be deleted. Missing sides of a select all marching ants is a known issue and changes with zoom level. The team are aware of this though.
