AugustWoman Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 My camera club encourages using an outline (stroke) of approximately 3-5 pixels wide when entering an image into competition. How do I do this? I include a sample image. Quote
MichaDE Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Press CTRL+ALT+C and add 5 px to your canvas. make a selection of your new canvas, press CTRL+B and reduce the size of your selection. Now press CTRL+Shift+I to Invert your selection. Fill your selection with a colour you like. Play around and I you're happy with your result, let's do it again and record a Marco.

PGHShutter Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 There's a multitude of ways to do this, but if you are using Photo and just need a solid line around your image, click on the layer image and right-click on the image, select layer effects from the pop-up menu, select Outline from the effects window, select your options for the outline (Alignment inside, color black, fill color solid, color black, etc). Fill style "contour" is a nice effect too. Hope this helps. Quote

AugustWoman Posted June 23, 2019 Author Posted June 23, 2019 I've been working through your suggestions and what is working for me is to select, then outline and choose preferences by hitting on the cog wheel. Thank you all. Quote
